- The release of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving platform in China gave the carmaker to test its autonomous driving software against that of local Chinese companies, XPeng President Brian Gu said. Comparing the two products was like a “DeepSeek” moment for autonomous vehicles because it put U.S. and Chinese tech up against each other.
U.S. and Chinese autonomous vehicle companies finally got the chance to compete against one another in a head-to-head battle to see whose tech was better when Tesla released its suite of self-driving capabilities in China earlier this year.
