Geely Auto Group is a leading automobile manufacturer based in Hangzhou, China, and was founded in 1997 as a subsidiary of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group. Geely Auto Group sells vehicles under the Geely Auto brand and holds a 50% stake in the LYNK & CO brand. The company employs more than 50,000 people and operates 12 plants. Geely vehicles are sold through a network of over 1000 dealerships in China and some 350 sales and service outlets in overseas markets. The company has been listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange since 2005. In 2018, Geely Auto Group sold a record high of 1,500,838 units, an increase of 20.3% from the previous year.  Founding Geely in 1986 as a refrigerator maker with money borrowed from family, Li Shufu transformed the company into a success selling inexpensive products to Chinese consumers. After the purchase of a failing, state-run firm, Geely manufactured motorcycles in the mid-1990s. Small van production began in 1998, and a year later, it received state approval to manufacture automobiles. Car production began in 2002. A subsidiary of the group, Geely Auto, had its IPO on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong in 2004. The company had a booth at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show, and 2006 showing at the Detroit auto show. Geely approached Ford in mid-2008 about a possible takeover of Volvo Cars. On October 28, 2009, it was named as the preferred buyer of Volvo by the American automaker. A deal was reached in late March and completed in early August 2010. In 2010, total sales of over 415,000 units gave the company a near 2% market share. Sales were lower than a reported 680,000 units per year production capacity. In December 2011, it was announced that Geely would begin selling Chinese-designed and -manufactured cars in the United Kingdom at the end of 2012, with the first model to go on sale being the Emgrand EC7. The company has also stated its intention to begin sales in Italy. In May 2017, Geely confirmed plans to purchase a 51% controlling stake in Lotus Cars from its owner, DRB-HICOM. Additionally, Geely plans to purchase a 49.9% stake in PROTON Holdings, to facilitate future export growth in right-hand drive markets. The deals were seen as an important step for the Chinese carmaker in their quest to make inroads into the lucrative ASEAN region. In July 2017 the company purchased Terrafugia, an American maker of flying cars. In November 2017, Geely announced the completion of the Terrafugia acquisition, including approval from all relevant regulators. In December 2017, Geely invested €3.25 billion into Swedish truck and construction company Volvo Group, a former parent company of Volvo Cars. The deal has made the company the biggest shareholder with 8.2% of the stake and 15.6% of voting rights. Furthering its expansion and reach, Geely purchased a 9.7% stake in Daimler-Benz, parent of Mercedes-Benz.

DeepRoute.ai secures $100 million in C1 funding round | SMM

DeepRoute.ai is a Chinese autonomous driving technology company founded in 2019 by Zhou Guang. The company focuses on developing advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and Level 4 autonomous driving solutions for passenger vehicles and commercial applications. DeepRoute's flagship product is Driver 2.0, a production-ready Level 4 autonomous driving system that integrates hardware and software components. The system utilizes five solid-state LiDAR units, eight cameras, and other sensors, along with a proprietary computing platform and inference engine to enable autonomous driving capabilities.
In March 2023, DeepRoute unveiled Driver 3.0, an updated solution that aims to eliminate the need for high-definition maps, potentially reducing costs and expanding operational capabilities. The company offers two versions of Driver 3.0: D-PRO, which costs USD 2,000 in hardware, and D-AIR, priced at USD 1,000. These solutions are designed to accelerate mass production plans for automakers by addressing concerns about mapping costs and geo-fencing limitations.
DeepRoute has conducted various tests and demonstrations of its technology. In July 2022, the company successfully completed China's first legalized driverless test in Shenzhen, navigating complex urban environments. The company has also deployed autonomous trucks for goods delivery during the Covid-19 pandemic in Shenzhen. DeepRoute holds testing permits for drivered autonomous vehicle testing in California as of November 2021.
To facilitate mass production and adoption, DeepRoute aims to keep costs low. As of September 2021, the company claimed it could price Driver 2.0 at USD 3,000 for automakers in mass production. The company has raised significant funding, including a USD 300 million Series B round in September 2021, led by Alibaba. DeepRoute has announced plans to establish a European operations center in Germany in 2024 to expand its presence in the automotive market.
Key customers and partnerships
DeepRoute has partnered with established automotive brands to integrate its autonomous driving solutions. In March 2023, the company announced that passenger cars equipped with Driver 3.0 would be available through an established car brand later that year, though the specific brand was not disclosed.
DeepRoute has also collaborated with state-owned Dongfeng Motor to develop and deploy robotaxis. In March 2021, the partners began offering free rides to the public in Wuhan, with plans to deploy at least 200 robotaxis by 2022. Additionally, DeepRoute worked with the government of Shenzhen to test a fleet of 25 unmanned autonomous vehicles on public roads in October 2021.
