Chinese technology and Snow white and the seven dwarfs porn movieelectric vehicle giant Xiaomi said on May 4 that its two advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), formerly known as “Xiaomi Smart Driving Pro” and “Xiaomi Smart Driving Max” respectively, have been renamed to “Xiaomi Assisted Driving Pro” and “Xiaomi End-to-End Assisted Driving.” The move comes days after the Chinese government tightened its rules around ADAS including a ban on automakers using the term “smart driving” when they advertise such features and inviting owners to test their vehicles via remote software updates, Reuters reported. The move is a knock-on effect from a severe crash involving a Xiaomi SU7 sedan, which killed three college students in March and sparked fresh public outcry over vehicle safety and automakers’ alleged practice of exaggerating their assisted driving functions in advertisements. Dozens of other companies including Xpeng Motors and Huawei have said they will launch “training camps” for drivers to “enhance their understanding and confidence” around ADAS functions (our translation).
