Haomo.AI Technology, a Chinese startup backed by Great Wall Motor, has unveiled new Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) kits, and their low costs promises to accelerate the widespread adoption of smart driving features in China.

Haomo unveiled three ADAS kits -- HP170, HP370 and HP570 -- at its 9th AI Day event today, saying they are the industry's lowest-priced driver assistance systems that do not rely on high-definition maps.

The kits are priced as low as RMB 3,000, and Haomo aims to have them installed in low-end to high-end passenger cars to capitalize on the opportunity presented by the expected 70 percent penetration of smart driving features by 2025.

These assisted driving kits from Haomo are the lowest priced we've seen to date and promise to accelerate the scaling of smart driving features in the cost-sensitive mass market.

The previous record holder for lowest cost assisted driving kits was Alibaba-backed local self-driving company DeepRoute, which released its Driver 3.0 solution on March 22 with hardware costs as low as $1,000.

The HP370 is priced from RMB 5,000 to RMB 5,999 and supports more features such as memory driving within the city and intelligent obstacle avoidance.

Haomo also unveiled progress made by DriveGPT at today's event, hoping to use artificial intelligence (AI) big models to accelerate the process of making autonomous driving systems more like human drivers.

Haomo officially launched DriveGPT on April 11, calling it the first generative foundation model of autonomous driving that will reshape the technological path of automotive intelligence.
