China has granted road approval for two electric sedan models equipped with Level-3 autonomous driving capabilities, in the first time it has allowed such vehicles to operate on public roads. 

According to a statement released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the models were developed by automakers Chang'an Automobile and BAIC Motor's Arcfox.

The Chang'an vehicle is capable of single-lane autonomous driving at speeds of up to 50 km per hour during traffic congestion.

It is approved to operate on select highway and urban expressway sections in southwest China's Chongqing.

The Arcfox vehicle is permitted to operate autonomously at speeds of up to 80 km per hour on designated highway and urban expressway sections in Beijing.

Autonomous driving is categorized in six levels from Level-0 to Level-5. The higher the level, the more advanced and intelligent the technology involved.

Level-3, "conditionally automated driving," allows vehicles to perform automated dynamic driving tasks while requiring a human driver to remain available to take control when requested.

In recent years, China has been promoting the adoption of autonomous driving.

In September, the country released a work plan outlining conditional approval for Level-3 vehicle production.

中国首次批准搭载L3级自动驾驶功能的电动汽车在公共道路上行驶，此次获批的是两款电动轿车车型。

根据工业和信息化部发布的声明，这两款车型分别由长安汽车和北汽极狐开发。

长安汽车获批车型能够在交通拥堵情况下，在最高50公里/小时的速度范围内实现单车道自动驾驶。

该车型获准在重庆特定高速公路和城市快速路路段行驶。

而极狐获批的车型可在北京指定高速公路和城市快速路路段，以最高80公里/小时的速度实现自动驾驶。

自动驾驶分为L0级至L5级六个级别。级别越高，涉及的技术越先进、智能化程度越高。

L3级被称为“有条件自动驾驶”，车辆可执行自动化动态驾驶任务，但需要人类驾驶员在系统请求时随时接管控制权。

近年来，中国一直积极推动自动驾驶技术的应用。

2023年9月，我国发布了关于开展L3级自动驾驶汽车量产准入管理工作的通知。
