Huawei returned to the 47th Bangkok International Motor Show for a third straight year and used Chery’s Jaecoo 6 EV and Jaecoo 6T EV to show how its Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) for Car software works in Thailand.
The main demo centred on charging, with Huawei also highlighting a link-up with regional emobility interoperability provider Voltality.
Huawei said drivers using Petal Maps can find chargers linked to Voltality’s network and complete scanning and payment without stepping out of the vehicle.
The two companies also signed a memorandum of understanding at the show, pointing to a broader push to tie together the car, charger network and payment layer.
That made the Jaecoo 6 and 6T a fitting choice.
In Thailand, Jaecoo positions the Jaecoo 6 EV as a boxy, all-electric SUV with off-road flavour. Huawei said its version of Petal Maps for the model adds functions such as service-area planning, battery visualisation, multi-route guidance, lane-level guidance, speed-limit alerts and toll display.
Huawei also used the event to talk up the core pieces of HMS for Car. It claimed access to 289 million global points of interest, support for more than 10 languages through its AI tools, and round-the-clock network services in more than 100 countries. Those should still be read as company claims from a motor show presentation, not independently verified test data.
Huawei, Chery and Voltality want charging, navigation and payment to feel more seamless in the car, particularly as EV use grows across Thailand and the wider region.
