①In terms of the amount of installed data, installations of side-view cameras maintain a growth rate of over 90%
From January to May 2025, ADAS cameras (statistical scope: front-view, side-view, surround view) installations for new passenger cars in China reached 33.160 million, a year-on-year increase of 38.6%; In 2024, the data was 76.424 million, a year-on-year increase of 44.4%.
Among them, side-view cameras grew the fastest. From January to May 2025, installations of side-view cameras were 7.077 million, a year-on-year increase of 96.6%. Specifically, in terms of brands and models, from January to May 2025, a total of 42 brands and 133 models adopted the 5-side-view camera solution, with a total of 1.18 million installed models, a year-on-year increase of 129.5%.
In terms of price ranges for 5-side-view camera solution, the 200,000-250,000 yuan range has the highest proportion at 24.2%. In this price range, there are many models with a 100% installation rate of 5 side-view cameras, including Xiaomi SU7, Li Auto L6, ONVO L60, Zeekr 7X, etc.
In terms of quantity, surround view cameras have the largest installation volume among all ADAS cameras. From January to May 2025, the installation volume of surround view cameras was 18.595 million, a year-on-year increase of 27.1%. Specifically, for models, a total of 302 models have a 100% installation rate of surround view cameras. In terms of brands, BYD ranks first in installations, accounting for 17.1%, which is 11.7 percentage points higher than Geely Automobile, which ranks second in installations.
From January to May 2025, a total of 31 brands have a 100% installation rate of surround view cameras, including Zeekr, Voyah, Li Auto, NIO, IM Motors, ORA, Xiaomi, Hyptec, Deepal, etc.
② In terms of ADAS solutions, the 12V solution has the fastest growth, followed by the 11V solution
From January to May 2025, by ADAS solutions equipped in models, the 12V solution grew the fastest, followed by the 11V solution. Among them, installations of the 12V solution reached 366,000 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 1241.8%. Installations of the 11V solution was 707,000 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 80.0%.
12V Solution
The mainstream 12V solution consists of 3 front-view cameras (3 monocular / 1 monocular + 1 binocular / 1 trinocular), 4 side-view cameras, 1 rear-view camera and 4 surround view cameras.
Take the BYD God's Eye (DiPilot) released in February 2025 as an example. Vision-only solution God's Eye C uses 12 cameras, including 1 trinocular front-view camera, 5 side-view cameras and 4 surround view cameras. Among them, both sides of the trinocular front-view camera are isomorphic 8MP wide-angle cameras (FOV 120°), and the middle one is an 8MP telephoto camera (FOV 30°). The 12V solution, together with 5R12U, can realize intelligent driving functions such as memory NOA, highway and expressway NOA, ICC, valet parking, and remote parking.
From January to May 2025, there are 11 brands including BYD, Fangchengbao, Zeekr, Hyptec, EXEED, Denza, etc., with a total of 41 models adopting the 12V solution.
11V Solution
The Xiaomi YU7 released in June 2025 adopts the 11V solution, including 2 front-view cameras, 4 surround view cameras, 4 side-view cameras and 1 rear-view camera. It is reported that all the above cameras are provided by Sunny Automotive Optech. Together with LiDAR, 4D radars and ultrasonic radars, the Xiaomi YU7 can realize a full set of high-end functions including urban NOA, highway NOA, intelligent parking, and memory parking.

From January to May 2025, there are 32 brands including Xiaomi, XPeng, Yangwang, IM Motors, Voyah, Li Auto, etc., with a total of 83 models adopting the 11V solution.
