Evolutionary Game and Simulation Analysis of Intelligent Connected Vehicle Industry With Cross-Border Collaborative Innovation

Abstract

The Made in China 2025 national strategy has prioritized intelligent connected vehicles (ICV) to realize the intelligence and connection transformation and upgrading of the automotive industry, ushering in unprecedented development opportunities. There are two technology paths in the ICV industry: single-vehicle intelligence and vehicle-infrastructure collaboration. Both face problem of low technological innovation efficiency, and key to solving it is breaking down barriers between enterprises and realizing cross-border collaborative innovation. This study offers a new cross-border collaborative innovation development paradigm for the ICV industry, centered on automotive enterprises and technology platform providers. This study examines the impact of changes in key parameters on the evolutionary results using the system dynamics method to analyze the efficiency of cross-border collaborative innovation in the ICV industry. The simulation results showed that cross-border collaborative innovation is inevitable for the ICV industry. Furthermore, compared to the single-vehicle intelligence scenario, the vehicle-infrastructure collaboration scenario shows faster convergence between automotive enterprises and technology platform providers. Finally, the choice of system collaborative innovation strategy is influenced by default cost and the collaborative innovation risk coefficient, whereas the cost-sharing coefficient and network connection fee only have an impact on the cross-border collaborative innovation system’s rate of evolution in the ICV industry.
