Fresh ahead of first deliveries of its ROBO-01 AI powered electric car later this year, Baidu\u2019s autonomous EV marque JIDU<\/a> has begun touting its second model \u2013 the ROBO-02. The Chinese automaker officially unveiled the new robotic EV sedan at the Guangzhou Auto Show alongside some images you can peruse below. Notice anything missing from the exterior?<\/p>\n

JIDU is an EV automaker established by China\u2019s Baidu Group in March of 2021. Rather than just build regular old EVs, JIDU was created to popularize autonomous driving and human-machine interaction technologies.<\/p>\n

It came out swinging with a AI-centric robotic concept that would eventually evolve into its flagship EV \u2013 the ROBO-01. Following hundreds of millions in Series A funding<\/a> in January of 2022, JIDU vowed to deliver consumers an autonomous, AI car that will combine interactive robot emotion and intelligence within the driving experience.<\/p>\n

This past summer, we got our full glimpse of the ROBO-01<\/a>, which lacks door handles, has a retractable steering wheel, and can talk and share its own emotions with its passengers. JIDU initially promised a limited run of 1,000 units of the ROBO-01 but later added an additional 1,000 due to high demand. While that first robotic EV moves closer to production this coming year, JIDU has made good on its promise to unveil a second model at the Guangzhou Auto Show. Have a look.<\/p>\n
