Core Viewpoint - The automotive industry is focusing on improving vehicle safety, particularly through the implementation of new regulations for Automatic Emergency Braking Systems (AEBS) in light vehicles [1][2]. Group 1: New Regulations - A new mandatory national standard for AEBS has been drafted, requiring M1 and N1 class vehicles to be equipped with this system [1][2]. - The AEBS includes two main functions: Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), aimed at reducing the likelihood of collisions with vehicles or pedestrians [1]. Group 2: Technical Requirements - For M1 vehicles, the AEBS must be active at speeds between 10 km/h and 80 km/h under all load conditions, while for N1 vehicles, the active speed range is 10 km/h to 60 km/h [2]. - The system must also activate when detecting potential collisions with pedestrians, bicycles, and two-wheeled vehicles at speeds between 20 km/h and 60 km/h [2]. Group 3: Market Impact - Following the announcement of the new regulations, stocks in the automotive parts sector surged, with companies like Jingsheng Electronics and Spring Precision Engineering hitting their daily limits [3]. - The discussion around AEB technology has intensified due to recent accidents involving smart connected vehicles, raising concerns about the effectiveness and reliability of AEB systems [3][4]. Group 4: Industry Debate - There is ongoing debate within the industry regarding the effectiveness of AEB systems, with some executives questioning the reliability of current AEB functionalities and their marketing claims [4]. - Specific incidents, such as the Xiaomi SU7 collision, have highlighted the limitations of AEB systems, particularly in recognizing certain obstacles [4].
