Huawei is now in a tough spot due to tough restrictive measures from the United States. The company has already begun to lose ground in the global smartphone market, and next year, according to a number of experts, the supply of Huawei cellular devices could collapse by 75%. In addition, serious difficulties are expected in the promotion of advanced 5G equipment.

In such a situation, Huawei is forced to look for new sources of income. One of them may be the automotive direction. According to reports, the company is forming a structure to supply a wide variety of items for smart cars. This applies to both hardware solutions and software.

Huawei is said to be building a team of thousands of automotive technology professionals. In particular, specialists who have previously worked in other companies in the relevant field will be hired.

Earlier it was said that Huawei intends to promote its HarmonyOS operating system in the segment of car infotainment complexes. In addition, the company may start producing various chips for smart vehicles.
