Zelostech Implements Cost-Effective Chip Strategy Without Nvidia

Zelostech plans to diversify chip suppliers, moving away from Nvidia (NVDA) to save costs on its self-driving systems. The company operates over 25,000 vehicles in more than 20 countries, primarily in logistics, contrasting with Waymo's nearly 4,000 vehicles. Chinese electric vehicle makers like BYD, Nio, and Xpeng are also developing their own semiconductors, reducing reliance on Nvidia. This transition may enhance operational efficiency and competitive advantage as the industry shifts toward using domestic chips for autonomous technology.
