To form “cross-border alliances” in industrial Internet, intelligent solutions, power battery systems, and ecosphere cooperation, Chery Group has partnered with Haier, Huawei, Luxshare Precision, CATL, iFLYTEK, Horizon Robotics, and other leading enterprises in various industries. Chery Qingdao Super Factory and Chery Wuhu Super Factory in succession were the first factories to put the HiGOPlat industrial Internet platform into operation and apply it.
By establishing a revolutionary production mode based on mass individual customization and creating a pacesetting “beacon factory”, Chery explored intelligent factory construction powered by the industrial Internet successfully.
