Byd teams its DJI drone electric cars, and why not?
Go on a road trip and see your vehicle deploy a drone to capture every moment from an unprecedented angle: this is what BYD promises by associating with Dji, world leader in drone.
A drone integrated into your car? Byd and Dji did it
Already integrated into the Yangwang U8, a high -end model, this on -board drone offers an aerial view in real time. A priori ideal for better understanding your environment, avoiding obstacles or simply immortalizing a magnificent landscape, therefore. But Byd does not stop there: as of March 2, the brand will announce the extension of this technology to other models, thus democratizing a functionality so far reserved for the elite.
The idea? Provide drivers with a tool capable of capturing their journeys from a new angle, improving safety and allowing increased monitoring of the vehicle. Djiwhich holds almost 70 % of the global drone market, brings its know-how with efficient and easy-to-use models. This strategic partnership may well add a little spice on An expanding market and strengthen Byd's position against Tesla, including Sales plunge in Europe.
But let's not forget that France now very strictly supervises the use drones – Whether used for recreational or professional purposes. The rules differ depending on the weight of the drone, its use and the flight environment. For example, leisure drones should not exceed 150 meters above sea level and are prohibited from theft in agglomeration. Night flights are also subject to very strict restrictions.
Despite everything, this project is part of a broader vision: Byd has just unveiled “God's Eye”, its own autonomous driving system, offered for free, unlike Tesla which still invoices its FSD (Full Self-Driving). A major asset to seduce an audience in search of accessible new features?
