DVN shanghai gathered more than 350 participants in Jiading last week. Our DVN senior expert team is preparing the detailed report for next week.
What a pleasure to meet again with the automotive Chinese community, to network all together. My five main takeaways:
- A lot of connections between China, Japan, Europe, India and America, all together at the same place. Everybody wants to see and feel what is happening in China, and DVN is a perfect venue for that.
- A clear overview was done by CATARC and SMVIC about new regulations and ratings in discussion for 2027 (automatic levelling, ADB field testing, lighting while parked, apparent surface modifications, symmetrical requirements, and more)
- Interesting discussion during the design panel discussion on how to develop fast in China with close collaboration between automaker designers and lighting tier-1s.
- With demonstration cars this year, it was a great experience to really see and feel new lighting, interior, and UX trends in China.
- Most of the exhibitors, demo cars, and lectures were presenting V2X communication with displays, projections, and the importance of user experience. One example was the impressive lecture from BYD about their projection roadmap.
