Besides, the carmaker touted a “digital soul” for the HiPhi Z, which is highlighted by the vehicle-mounted multi-axis displacement digital robot HiPhi Bot and the Unreal Engine 5—an advanced 3D rendering development engine offered by the world's leading game software company Epic Games.

The mass-produced HiPhi Z will be armed with the HiPhi Pilot driver assistance system and carry up to 31 sensors across the car body, including a LiDAR unit, two 8 mega-pixel cameras, five millimeter-wave radars, and two infrared night-vision cameras.
