Amid the accelerating integration of automotive intelligence and electrification, leading Chinese automotive R&D service provider IAT (Intelligent Automotive Technology) officially launched its "AI+Digital Intelligent Creation" product system today, introducing four core AI products: the intelligent large model "Yuanfang," the intelligent agent "Fangcun," the aerodynamics AI system "Yufeng," and the design AI "Taiyi" 3.0. These products comprehensively empower the forward development of automobiles, aiming to increase design iteration efficiency by tens of times and significantly reduce development costs.

Four AI Engines Rebuild the Entire Automotive R&D Process

1. "Yuanfang" Large Model:

   - Specifically trained for automotive engineering semantics, covering multi-disciplinary knowledge such as structure, electronics, and thermal management;  

   - Compresses traditional scheme iterations that took weeks into hours, supporting parametric design generation and optimization;  

   - Supports natural language instructions, such as "generate an SUV chassis layout with a range of 800km and drag coefficient less than 0.22."

2. "Yufeng" Aerodynamics AI System:

   - Trained using CFD simulation and physical engines to predict drag, lift, and airflow separation in real time;  

   - Provides high-precision aerodynamic evaluation without complete simulation, shortening wind tunnel test cycles by over 50%;  

   - Can work in conjunction with "Yuanfang" to automatically optimize body surfaces to achieve aerodynamic goals.

3. "Taiyi" 3.0 Design AI:

   - An upgraded generative design tool, supporting brand DNA identification, trend analysis, and multi-solution generation;  

   - When designers input "sporty feel, family-style front face, new energy elements," the AI can instantly output dozens of sketches;  

   - Has been used in multiple domestic brand projects for rapid exploration at the concept stage.

4. "Fangcun" Intelligent Agent (Agent):

   - Acts as a coordinator for the R&D process, automatically assigning tasks, tracking progress, and warning of risks;  

   - Can call tools like "Yuanfang," "Yufeng," and "Taiyi" across departments, forming an autonomous collaborative R&D closed loop.

Building the "Eco-Jungle": Collaborating with Modular World to Create an Industrial Closed Loop

To accelerate technology implementation, IAT announced the "Eco-Jungle Matrix" initiative with Modular World, integrating:

- AI model layer (IAT's self-developed);

- Data and simulation layer (Modular World's digital twin platform);

- Manufacturing and verification layer (partner factories and test sites).

This ecosystem aims to provide one-stop AI R&D services from concept to mass production for整车厂 and parts suppliers, lowering the threshold for small and medium-sized car companies to transition to intelligentization.

Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone: AI Automotive Industry High Ground Accelerates Formation

This launch coincides with Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone's efforts to promote the integration of AI and advanced manufacturing. Currently, the zone has gathered more than 600 AI enterprises, with an industrial scale exceeding 80 billion yuan, forming a complete ecosystem covering chips, algorithms, smart cabins, autonomous driving, and R&D toolchains. As a core R&D service provider within the zone, IAT's AI product system is expected to become a benchmark case for the integration of "AI + automotive" in the intelligentization era.

AIbase Insight: The Automotive R&D Enters the "AI-Native" Era

Previously, AI was mainly used in after-sales or cabin interactions. Now, IAT has deeply embedded AI in the front end of forward development, marking the automotive industry's shift from "experience-driven" to "data and model-driven."
