Camera-based vision: Xpeng eliminated laser sensor units from the MONA M03 in a move to accelerate the adoption of a camera-only approach to vehicle autonomy.
Lidar is more often used to capture three-dimensional information for autonomous navigation on more luxurious Chinese EV models priced mostly from RMB 200,000 ($28,060) and above.
This makes the car the only model available to the market that offers advanced driver assistance capabilities within the RMB 200,000 price range, said chief executive He Xiaopeng.
Xpeng also provided more details about its plan to make EVs with highly autonomous capabilities as part of the launch.
The smartphone maker has been delivering more than 10,000 units per month of the $30,000 sports sedan since June.
