MIIT Reports Progress on Shortening Auto Supplier Payment Cycles, Says Some Firms Still Extend Them

China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) on July 27 held a media briefing to report on efforts to push major auto companies to shorten payment cycles for suppliers. The ministry noted that a few companies still have disguised extensions, such as delayed start dates and non-standard management. To strengthen oversight, MIIT appointed 20 journalists as the first batch of 'supervisors' for the industry's payment-cycle issues. Next, MIIT will accelerate the compilation of payment guidelines, step up supervision, and enforce laws to protect supplier firms, especially small and medium-sized enterprises.

BYD Publishes Autonomous Driving Paper HyWorldVLA, Achieves SOTA on NAVSIM v1 with PDMS 90.59

BYD's Automotive New Technology Institute released HyWorldVLA, a foundation model for autonomous driving, achieving a PDMS score of 90.59 on the NAVSIM v1 benchmark, a leading result. The model uses a hybrid world model and VLA architecture. Ablation studies show the hybrid strategy is key; removing frame prediction drops PDMS to 87.50, and removing latent space to 89.91. In rain-fog scenarios, PDMS reached 86.87. The paper is BYD's first multimodal foundation model, developed independently. The team includes researchers from Harbin Institute of Technology and Carnegie Mellon University, with prior work including EMoE-Planner in 2025. This reflects BYD's shift to a robotics-AI approach.
