What Happened
BYD announced full damage coverage for the Urban Navigate on Autopilot (NOA) function of its God's Eye - BYD Intelligent Driving System, following a similar pledge for Intelligent Parking. The company made the announcement at its Intelligence Strategy Launch Event in Shenzhen, where it also unveiled China's first 4nm automotive driving SoC, the XUANJI A3. BYD is now the world's first automaker to offer dual ADAS damage coverage.
