董红磊：监管创新护航智能网联汽车安全

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the evolving challenges in quality and safety regulation for intelligent connected vehicles in China, emphasizing the need for innovative regulatory approaches to ensure safety during the industry's transition to smart and connected technologies [3][4]. Group 1: Regulatory Challenges - The shift towards intelligent connected vehicles redefines product quality and safety, moving from traditional mechanical failures to software defects and network risks [3][4]. - The relationship between manufacturers and users has evolved into a value co-creation model, necessitating a focus on user experience and risk prevention throughout the product lifecycle [4][5]. - The "14th Five-Year Plan" emphasizes the importance of consumer-end regulation, aiming to transition quality standards from production compliance to market adaptability [4][5]. Group 2: Recall System Importance - The recall system is highlighted as a crucial tool for quality safety regulation, not only protecting safety but also enhancing product quality [5][6]. - Since the implementation of the recall system in 2004, there have been 3,237 recalls involving 120 million vehicles, with over half initiated under the supervision of the market regulatory authority [5][6]. - The increase in recalls related to driver assistance systems indicates a growing concern over safety issues linked to these technologies [5][6]. Group 3: Identified Risks - Three core risk characteristics of intelligent connected vehicles have been identified: expanded safety risks, new problems from feature applications, and increased safety hazards [6][7]. - Traditional automotive defects typically follow a linear failure path, while intelligent connected vehicles face complex risks due to deep integration of systems [6][7]. - The rise of over-the-air (OTA) updates has introduced new risks, with some manufacturers neglecting safety validations, leading to new defects [7][8]. Group 4: Policy Innovations - The market regulatory authority has implemented a comprehensive regulatory framework covering vehicle entry, recalls, accident reporting, and promotional regulation [9][10]. - Recent policies include the establishment of an accident reporting system for electric vehicles and the first global OTA regulatory framework [9][10]. - A "sandbox regulation" approach is being explored to provide a controlled testing environment for new technologies while ensuring safety through recall mechanisms [10][11]. Group 5: Future Directions - The construction of a hazard scenario database is seen as a key measure to address the shortcomings of driver assistance systems [10][11]. - The regulatory authority aims to share scenario data across the industry to reduce testing costs and focus on high-risk scenarios [10][11]. - Continuous improvement of the quality safety regulatory system is expected to facilitate higher quality development in the intelligent connected vehicle sector during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period [11].
