With the global auto market stepping into 2015, the automobile sector’s energy reservation and environmental protection has become an issue of global concern, which has significantly promoted the favorable development of the new energy automobiles. At the same time,“Internet + auto”is forming a more open auto ecosphere. As the world’s greatest auto consumer market for six consecutive years, China is closely following the new trend of the global auto market. As China’s auto industry is vigorously booming and China’s auto market is rapidly growing, Auto Shanghai has gradually become one of the most reputed auto exhibitions in China and even in the world.

On April 20th, the 16th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition with the topic of “Innovation for Upgrading” kicked off a grand opening. It was reported that nearly 2000 well-known enterprises from 18 countries and regions attended the exhibition. A total of 1,343 automobiles were in display and a total of 109 automobiles had their global debut.

It is noticeable that BAIC Group’s first Internet-of-Vehicle based system had its debut on Auto Shanghai. Integrating GPS, RFID, sensor, camera image processing and other system device resources, the Internet-of-Vehicle system has realized information interaction and synchronization through internet and computer technologies. BAIC marks an important breakthrough of “Internet + auto” since China’s Premier Li Keqiang proposed the national strategy of “Internet +”.

In terms of environmental protection, BAIC Group presented two remarkable new energy vehicles and especially expounded on the Electric Vehicle travel plan via real-life simulation, making consumers get to know and get access to joys generated from new energy vehicles more intuitively. As a matter of fact, BAIC Group has been actively implementing the energy conservation and emission reduction strategy. The performance at this exhibition was equally eye-catching.

Highly anticipated new auto models of BAIC were also present at the exhibition. The two brand new auto models launched by BAIC Group were derived from the platform of Saab, which were of good pedigree. They are bound to set off the storm of “Passion for Performance” and become a “Better and Ingenious Choice” for the vast consumers.

In pursuit of the dream of becoming a Center of Competence among the Chinese brands, BAIC Group will proceed with its sustainable efforts so as to usher in the future in a more influential momentum.
