This coincides with Kia/Hyundai announcing the same thing. Either they need Baidu tech to compete with BYD in the Chinese market because it’s just that good or locally desirable. Or the countries regulators require it. Given they all announced this at the auto show at the same time, seems too coordinated for competing car companies.
I believe its about the map and coordinate system used by China. They uses an encrypted (?) coordinate system claiming national security. That’s why Google maps never work in China.
