Qijing GT7 Releases L3 Autonomous Driving Test Video with Full-Stack Dual Safety Backup System

On June 25, Qijing Auto released a test video showcasing the L3-level autonomous driving capabilities of its Huawei Qiankun | Qijing GT7 intelligent shooting brake vehicle. The model features an end-to-end dual safety redundancy system and includes a dedicated “A” button on the steering wheel, enabling activation of the L3 conditional autonomous driving function under regulatory compliance. Earlier, at the 2026 China Automotive Chongqing Forum, Qijing Auto CEO Liu Jiaming announced that the company had obtained Guangzhou’s road testing permit for L3 autonomous driving, and relevant vehicle models had already commenced pre-testing for L3 autonomous driving in Guangzhou. The vehicle employs a fully redundant architecture designed specifically for autonomous driving, incorporating eight hardware redundancy systems: - **Dual Power Supply Architecture**: Two independent power circuits enable seamless switching in case of single-circuit failure. - **Dual Steering Systems**: Equipped with primary and backup steering controllers to ensure steering stability. - **Dual Braking Systems**: Features primary and backup braking controllers to maintain continuous braking functionality. - **Dual Communication Links**: Prevents loss of vehicle control commands. - **Dual Positioning Systems**: Enables precise positioning even in complex road networks and signal-denied areas. - **Dual Compute Domain Controllers**: Utilizes two SoC chips working in tandem to support safe roadside parking. - **Dual Perception Architecture**: Omnidirectional perception modules can safely bring the vehicle to a stop even in the event of sensor failure. - **Multi-modal HMI Interaction**: Delivers takeover alerts through tactile (automatic seatbelt tightening), visual (instrument cluster warnings), and auditory (voice prompts) channels. The Qijing GT7 will officially launch on June 26, equipped with Huawei Qiankun ADS 5 advanced intelligent driving assistance system, a next-generation dual-optical-path imaging-grade LiDAR, HarmonySpace smart cockpit powered by HarmonyOS, and debuts Huawei’s Qiankun Chitu platform. The vehicle’s pre-sale price ranges from RMB 219,900 to RMB 309,900, and the first production unit rolled off the assembly line on June 22.
