Chinese SUV manufacturer Great Wall Motors has selected UK company 7207 Delphi to provide a suite of active safety technologies for its next-generation SUVs. The Great Wall Haval series of SUVs have been the best-selling SUV in China for 14 consecutive years.
 
Beginning in 2019, Delphi will supply its intelligent forward view camera (IFV), mid-range radars (MRR) and short-range radars (SRR) to Great Wall Motors for its SUV products.

Delphi’s IFV offers vehicle manufacturers a scalable architecture for their forward-looking safety system. The camera uses a single imager and enables target classification, sensing and tracking capability, required for multiple safety functions including lane departure warning, forward collision warning, automatic headlight control and pedestrian detection.

The company’s high performance SRR offers 360-degree sensing and is able to effectively identify objects and distinguish space in complex and disorderly environments. The SRR supplied to GWM features a safe exit alert feature that prevents a collision between the vehicle and cyclists when passenger or driver exits the vehicle, while the SRR enables advanced emergency braking in urban driving and basic adaptive cruise control.
