On Nov. 10 Chongqing Chang'an Technology Co. was renamed Tianshu Technology (Chongqing) Co. Tianshu is designated within Changan Auto as the primary vehicle for its smart-vehicle investments. Changan plans to invest 200 billion yuan in new-vehicle development over the next decade, with more than 150 billion yuan allocated to the Tianshu-centered new auto technology supply chain. Internal sources say Tianshu's Tianshu Linghang advanced driver-assistance system is currently in mass production only on Changan-branded models. Some analysts say the rename and moves to shift capital raising from internal injections to introducing strategic investors could indicate a push toward an independent IPO. Changan Auto replied that Tianshu currently has no listing plan and will continue independent development, focusing on the Tianshu Linghang ADAS platform.
