Chinese autonomous driving companies are rapidly expanding their global footprint, leveraging advanced technologies and an innovation-friendly environment. WeRide and Pony.ai recently launched services in Saudi Arabia, while Baidu's Apollo Go completed over 1.4 million rides in Q1 2025, a 75% year-on-year rise. Experts like Zhang Yuxue emphasize that this global push enhances technological adaptation and fosters industrial collaboration, although challenges such as regulatory compliance and competition remain significant.
