Tips

culture
HUD (head-up display) became standard equipment on mid-to-high-end EVs in China around 2022. AR-HUD systems (e.g. on 问界, 极氪, 理想) project navigation arrows directly onto the road in the driver's view. Pronounced as English letters H-U-D in Chinese conversation.
usage
Often listed in car specs alongside other initialisms: ADAS (advanced driver assistance), NOA (Navigate on Autopilot), ACC (adaptive cruise control), AEB (automatic emergency braking). All kept in Latin letters.
