China-Based Automaker Selects Arbe Radar for Level 4 Autonomous Vehicle Program
A China-based state-owned automaker has selected the ultra-high-definition radar technology of Arbe Robotics, integrated into the system of Hirain Technologies, for its Level 4 autonomous vehicle program. Start of production is scheduled for December 2026, with thousands of vehicles expected to reach the market during 2027.
The selected solution is based on Hirain’s LRR610 radar, powered by Arbe’s proprietary chipset, and will be deployed as the front-facing radar in the vehicle. The technology enables high-resolution perception for both urban and highway environments, supporting safe and reliable autonomous driving in complex traffic scenarios, including dense urban settings, vulnerable road users, and challenging edge cases.
Arbe’s chipset features the industry’s largest channel array, with 48 receiving and 48 transmitting RF channels, alongside a dedicated processor that delivers dense data for AI-based post-processing. This architecture allows for precise detection, accurate object classification, and real-time decision-making, all critical requirements for Level 4 autonomy.
“Level 4 autonomous vehicles demand exceptional resolution, accuracy, and reliability,” said Chengjian Fan, CTO of Hirain Technologies. “By leveraging Arbe’s high-resolution radar chipset, we are able to deliver the detailed sensing capabilities required for complex urban environments, as well as long-range, high-resolution perception for high-speed highway driving. Safety, smooth vehicle behavior, and unmatched perception are our top priorities.”

Kobi Marenko, CEO of Arbe, added that the collaboration reflects both technological maturity and strategic momentum in the autonomous driving market. “China is one of the most advanced and fast-moving markets for autonomous vehicles,” he said. “This selection underscores the strength of our technology and the trust global automotive leaders place in Israeli innovation as they move toward full vehicle autonomy.”
Arbe is expected to showcase a live demonstration of its automotive-grade radar technology at CES 2026 in Las Vegas.
