Aptiv Launches New Advanced Technology on Buick GL8 Avenir


Earlier this week, SAIC-GM launched the all-new Buick GL8 Avenir in China. The Buick GL8 Avenir is a leading platform for innovation in China, which the automaker says has 20 advanced intelligent driving features that support “the highest level of safety, with an ASIL D rating, and allows software OTA updates to an even higher level of driver assistance functions.” Moreover, SAIC-GM stated that the Buick GL8 Avenir’s ADAS system provides “a safer, more reliable and more intelligent driving experience tailored for various road conditions and local users’ driving preferences.”

I’m proud to share that Aptiv’s technology and talent helped enable these advanced features and capabilities. Aptiv is proud to have contributed the successful and on time launch, which proves the strength of Aptiv’s engineering and development capabilities in China as well as Aptiv’s global leadership in advanced and scalable ADAS technology. You can learn more about Aptiv’s contribution in the English translation of the Chinese press release below.

Congratulations to the team for a successful, on-time launch, and for delivering on our mission to enable the future of mobility with safer, greener and more connected solutions that consumers can trust.
