Ni hao from Auto China 2026 in Beijing! Geely has just unveiled its Eva Cab, a robotaxi prototype that the company says is China’s first purpose-built one. Unlike others converted from existing production cars, this was specifically engineered from the ground up for driverless commercial operation. The Eva Cab is really one for the techies, because it features full-domain AI that powers Geely’s G-ASD 4.0 intelligent driving platform (co-developed with tech partner Afari), which in turn enables Level 4 autonomy. Pilot robotaxi operations have already been conducted for over a year in cities like Hangzhou and Suzhou, in collaboration with Geely’s CaoCao Mobility subsidiary. A ‘CaoCao Mobility’ customized edition of the Eva Cab is set to be launched in 2027. Geely says the car has the industry’s most powerful in-vehicle computing platform, integrating the NVIDIA SuperChip, NVIDIA Thor U, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 8397 to yield over 3,000 TOPS of computing power. It also says the Eva Cab has the world’s first ‘Quantum-Level AI Electronic and Electrical Architecture’, the world’s first 2,160-line digital LiDAR system and the industry’s first mass-production-ready Level 4 assisted driving software solution. We get it – it’s a very, very intelligent car. The vehicle itself features electric sliding doors, a face-to-face cabin layout, a ‘Galaxy Skyroof’ ceiling, ‘Drifting Galaxy’ door panels and ‘Orchid Pavilion and Meandering Streams’ armrests – that’s China for you.
