Recently, Panda Bus (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of DeepBlue Technology, held a signing ceremony with a well-known bus group in Shanghai. According to the agreement, the bus group will purchase 500 Panda Smart Buses from DeepBlue Technology, representing a significant order of hundreds of units for domestic large commercial vehicles in the autonomous driving sector, reflecting the trend towards large-scale and commercialization of autonomous buses.
As a star product of DeepBlue Technology, the Panda Smart Bus has attracted much attention since its launch. Equipped with DeepBlue Technology's self-developed intelligent driving system, this bus integrates cutting-edge technologies such as autonomous driving, smart cabins, biometric authentication (e.g., hand scanning for boarding), eye-controlled advertising, on-board unmanned retail cabinets, and on-board robots, not only enhancing passengers' travel experience but also setting a new benchmark for intelligence and green technology in the public transportation industry.
The manufacturing task for this order will be undertaken by CRRC Times Electric Vehicle Co., Ltd. As a leading enterprise in China's new energy vehicle sector, CRRC Times, with its strong R&D, manufacturing, and testing capabilities, guarantees the mass production of Panda Buses. This cooperation between the two parties will further advance the commercialization of intelligent driving technology.
According to reports, DeepBlue Technology has been committed to the forward research and development of smart vehicles since 2017, with its autonomous driving technology team focusing on the development and application of L3-L4 autonomous driving systems. The launch of Panda Bus represents a successful attempt by DeepBlue Technology in the field of large-scale commercial vehicle intelligence. The bus has undergone road tests in many cities in China and has obtained smart connected and autonomous driving test licenses in places including Shanghai, Wuhan, Changsha, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou.
It is reported that DeepBlue Technology's Panda Buses have previously been put into operation on routes in Binjiang and Jiading, among others. These adorable Panda Buses have not only won the hearts of citizens and tourists but also earned DeepBlue Technology a good reputation in the market.
