Chaihuo MCV
Born for the Wild, Driving the Future
A mobile AI lab traversing China

Using the Chaihuo Mobile Creative Vehicle as a moving platform, we venture deep into mountains, grasslands, and rural communities to bring AI into real-world scenarios. Over 200 days across China, we test technology in extreme environments, co-create solutions with local residents, and give everyone the opportunity to harness AI.

Connecting technology
to every coordinate

We will cross China's three terrain steps, six climate zones, and over ten landform types. This is not just a cross-section of China's natural and cultural geography — it's a real-world technology experiment.
