The GKUI system runs on the Android operating system and was created as an intelligent ecosystem that combines many technological solutions.
This smart ecosystem is easy to use and understandable for those who have already mastered smartphones. However, its capabilities go far beyond the standard interface: in the future, the system will receive active safety functions, including auto-parking, several video cameras (including a front radar), as well as passive elements like the "360° vision" surround-view system.
An important feature of GKUI from Geely is the ability to update drivers, applications, and the operating system itself without contacting a service center. The platform is open and independent, allowing any developers to create useful programs for it.
Most functions and applications are controlled by voice through artificial intelligence. Voice control covers navigation, climate control, opening and closing windows — the system recognizes hundreds of commands. It even determines which window needs to be opened based on which seat the driver is in.
Through GKUI, the owner can ask the car to check the contents of the refrigerator, order missing products online, or build a route home with a stop at the store.
Currently, Geely installs first-generation GKUI on its cars. In the second generation, ECARX plans to add driver condition monitoring to enhance safety. The third generation will offer more complex functions, such as auto-parking based on the valet parking service principle. The ultimate goal of development is the gradual introduction of autonomous driving.
In 2018, Geely Auto began a new energy era by introducing a strategy for diversifying energy efficiency in four directions: hybrids, alternative fuels, hydrogen fuel cells, and pure electric vehicles. At the same time, the launch of the flagship smart hybrid Bo Rui GE (Geely Atlas) was announced.
