TREE NEWS update: Huawei and Seres Group signed a new five-year strategic cooperation agreement on September 30 in Shenzhen, upgrading their AITO (Wenjie) business partnership under HIMA (HarmonyOS Intelligent Mobility). The signing ceremony was attended by Yu Chengdong, Huawei’s executive director and chairman of its Terminal BG, and Seres Group chairman and founder Zhang Xinghai. The deal extends the two companies’ existing collaboration on the AITO electric vehicle brand.
Huawei and Seres Sign New Five-Year Cooperation Agreement
The five-year horizon matters more than the renewal itself: it locks Huawei's HarmonyOS-based vehicle stack into Seres' product pipeline well past the current model cycle, signalling that HIMA is being treated as a durable platform rather than a marketing arrangement. For Seres, the extension reinforces its position as the flagship partner of Huawei's automotive ambitions, but it also deepens dependence on a partner that other automakers increasingly view as a competitor. Whether Huawei broadens the HIMA model to additional OEMs — and how that affects Seres' differentiation — is the open question.
