History

Zhuoyu Technology traces its origins to DJI's internal automotive division, which was established in 2016 as a project team focused on smart driving technology research and development.[2][3] In 2023, the division was formally spun off from DJI and operated independently.[2]

In June 2024, the company officially adopted "Zhuoyu" as its business brand name alongside a new logo.[2]

In September 2025, FAW Group acquired 35.8% of Zhuoyu through capital increase and share purchase, becoming the company's largest single shareholder and jointly controlling Zhuoyu with DJI's affiliate New Territory, which held 34.85% of shares after the transaction.[4] Prior to this, BYD and SAIC also held minority stakes in Zhuoyu through their investment entities.[5][6]

Technology

Zhuoyu's core product is the Chengxing Platform (成行平台), an intelligent driving system that provides high-level driving assistance functions covering highway, urban, and parking scenarios.[7] The platform supports integrated cockpit-drive integration, compatibility with multiple chips, and flexible computing power expansion.[7]

The company employs a "low computing power for high-level functions" approach, claiming to achieve highway navigation pilot functions with only 32 TOPS of computing power and urban navigation pilot functions with 100 TOPS. This contrasts with industry mainstream solutions that typically require at least 254 TOPS using NVIDIA Orin-X chips.[8]

Zhuoyu has developed several hardware configurations for the Chengxing Platform, including 7V mid-computing power, 7V high-computing power, 10V high-computing power, and lidar high-computing power solutions.[9] The FAW Hongqi Tiangong 08 is the first mass-production model equipped with Zhuoyu's 10V high-computing power solution with 100 TOPS SoC computing power.[10]
