The evolution of HMI in Chinese EVs reveals a major shift – from functional interfaces to emotionally rich, game-inspired user experiences. This talk explores how design strategies rooted in gaming are transforming in-car interaction, turning driving into a dynamic, emotionally engaging experience. With examples, it highlights the cultural, technical, and user behavior differences that shape UX expectations in China and Europe, and what this means for the future of automotive design globally.

You will learn more about:

  • How gamification principles like feedback, emotional rewards, and immersion are driving HMI innovation in China
  • Why Chinese EV buyers demand richer, more playful interfaces
  • What do UX cultural differences between China and Europe mean for HMI design strategies
  • How game mechanics can be used as strategic tools to enhance engagement in future vehicles
