Beijing: China based autonomous driving company DeepRoute.ai has said that more than 300000 vehicles are now using its advanced driving system, marking a major step in the country’s push toward smarter mobility.
The announcement was made at the Beijing auto show, where the company shared that its technology is already being used on public roads across China through partnerships with several carmakers. The system helps vehicles perform tasks such as steering, braking and navigating in busy city conditions, while still requiring a driver to remain attentive.
Chief executive Maxwell Zhou said the company expects rapid growth, with plans to add another one million vehicles using its system within 2026. This signals a shift from limited testing to wider real world use of assisted driving technology.
DeepRoute.ai’s system is part of a growing category known as advanced driver assistance, which supports drivers but does not fully replace them. The company has been working on features like city navigation on autopilot, allowing vehicles to handle more complex urban environments.
Industry experts say this growth reflects China’s strong investment in artificial intelligence and smart vehicles. Companies across the country are racing to develop more reliable systems that can handle real traffic situations safely.
DeepRoute.ai is also focusing on improving its technology by using larger artificial intelligence models, aiming to make driving decisions more accurate and consistent. The company believes this approach will help reduce errors and improve safety as more vehicles adopt the system.
The rapid expansion of such technology suggests that assisted driving could soon become a common feature in many vehicles in China, as the industry moves step by step toward fully autonomous transport.
