Chinese consumers are among the most confident in the world when it comes to daily mobility safety, but the rapid development of intelligent vehicles is creating new challenges in ensuring that public expectations match technological realities, according to a new report.
The report by Economist Enterprise, supported by Brembo, shows that 94 percent of Chinese road users feel safe in their everyday travel, placing China among the markets with the highest levels of public confidence.
The study surveyed 6,157 respondents across 10 markets, including 5,135 road users and 1,022 mobility industry professionals, examining how consumers and industry experts view the future of mobility safety.
"In high-trust markets such as China, public confidence has grown alongside rapid, visible modernization — new infrastructure, smarter vehicles and more advanced mobility technologies," said Pratima Singh, principal of policy and insights at Economist Enterprise, who led the research.
