For vehicles, Tencent has launched products and capabilities such as intelligent cockpit TAI, intelligent driving map, high-definition map, intelligent scene engine and in-vehicle mini programs to make vehicles more intelligent.
Tencent also promised to leverage its social media tools WeChat and Enterprise WeChat, and a new "Tencent Mobility Service" mini program to form a seamless connection between mobile phones and vehicles.
Tencent has launched industry cloud solutions spanning the entire chain of automobile R&D, manufacturing, marketing, operation and after-market services.
Currently, more than 100 auto companies and mobility technology companies have chosen Tencent Intelligent Automobile Cloud service, and over 35 auto companies are using Tencent intelligent cockpit products. Some 600 industry partners are collaborating with Tencent in coming up with innovative solutions.
