Huawei has officially become an electric vehicle manufacturer, potentially surpassing Apple and Xiaomi, after the company attended the Shanghai Auto Show to unveil its first electric vehicle developed in collaboration with BAIC’s EV division. The Arcfox Alpha S is a fully electric model, with its software and hardware components entirely developed by Huawei. Although no information has been shared regarding this, BAIC was likely responsible for everything related to manufacturing.

As expected, Huawei is betting big on the synchronization between new electric vehicle models and its smartphones, so HarmonyOS allows for seamless communication, with a huge 4K screen in the car installed on the dashboard, enabling users to control everything from infotainment to autonomous driving capabilities, which is much better than the announced Xiaomi model, and even ahead of Apple’s car release.
Of course, voice recognition is also offered, but the car also supports gestures, so you can interact with it without even touching.

The Best Battery On The Market
The lithium-ion battery comes with intelligent temperature control, making it theoretically one of the safest electric cars, as the charge does not allow for excessive overheating. This is one of the reasons why Huawei’s car charges so quickly. Wireless charging is also offered, although it goes without saying that it would take longer to fully charge the battery without a cable.
The autonomous driving mode is powered by onboard maps also provided by Huawei; however, for now, only a handful of Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, are supported.
Huawei’s new electric vehicle, which promises to be better than the models from Xiaomi and Apple, will be available for sale later this year, with prices starting at 251,900 Yuan (around US$ 38,700), reaching up to 429,900 Yuan (US$ 66,000) for the higher HI version.
