Chinese provider of connected-car and in-vehicle infotainment software solutions for automakers.
Chinese provider of connected-car and in-vehicle infotainment software solutions for automakers.
Is paid by carmakers under development projects and per-vehicle software supply, so revenue depends on which car models it wins and how many of them sell. Smart-cockpit work expands what it supplies per vehicle, while carmakers also build software in-house, which limits its share.
In one line: China's answer to a connected-car software supplier like Harman/QNX.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, customer qualification). Long-qualified automotive-grade software supplier relationships, though the connected-car software market is competitive with in-house OEM efforts.
Headquarters: Shanghai, China · Founded: 2010 · Employees: 2,119
