The U.S. Department of Commerce announced a final rule Tuesday that would ban the sale or import of connected vehicles from China and Russia due to national security concerns. The rule would also bar Chinese car companies, such as WeRide and Pony AI, from testing self-driving cars on U.S. roads.
“China is trying to dominate the future of the auto industry, but connected vehicles with software and hardware systems linked to foreign adversaries could expose the American people to risks of misuse of their sensitive data or interference by malicious actors,” National Economic Advisor Lael Brainard said in a statement, adding that the ruling also ensures “a more secure American auto industry.”
Software bans are scheduled to take effect in the 2027 model year, and hardware prohibitions in 2029. The department said the bans wouldn’t cover Chinese software developed before the new rules take effect, as long as a Chinese firm doesn’t have access to the software.
The final rule also includes exemptions for vehicles heavier than 10,000 pounds, which means China’s BYD could continue to assemble electric buses in California.
There are a handful of Chinese autonomous vehicle companies with active permits to test in California. Baidu-owned Apollo Autonomous Driving and WeRide all have permits to test AVs without safety drivers. Pony AI, which recently joined the public markets, has a permit to test with a safety driver. In the company’s IPO materials, Pony noted a slight risk of being unable to continue its extremely limited robotaxi testing in the U.S. due to the imminent ban, saying those operations generated “less than 1% of [its] total revenues in 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2024.”
A spokesperson from the California Department of Motor Vehicles previously told TechCrunch that the agency would follow the Commerce Department’s lead when it comes to enforcing prohibitions on Chinese connected vehicle technology. TechCrunch has reached out to learn if the DMV will revoke those permits now that the final ruling has been announced.

Hi Newsupdates 24,
Most business owners pour money into marketing that doesn’t work. They run ads, post on social media, and hope for the best—only to be disappointed by the results.
The problem? They’re relying on vague branding tactics instead of proven strategies.
Dan Kennedy calls this the “ADHD approach to marketing”—jumping from one shiny tactic to another without a clear, measurable plan.
But there’s a better way: Direct-Response Marketing.
This approach focuses on generating real, measurable results, like leads, sales, and conversions. Here’s how you can start applying it today:
Step 1: Speak Directly to Your Audience
One of Dan’s key teachings is this: “If you’re speaking to everyone, you’re speaking to no one.” Direct-response marketing works because it’s personal.
For example:
A company selling weight loss supplements doesn’t just target “everyone who wants to lose weight.” Instead, they target busy moms who want to shed pounds quickly after having kids.
A financial advisor doesn’t market to “everyone interested in saving money.” They craft campaigns for high-income professionals nearing retirement.
Your Action Step: Write down your audience’s specific demographics, challenges, and goals.
Step 2: Use an Irresistible Call-to-Action
Every piece of marketing must tell the audience what to do next. Whether it’s “Download this guide,” “Sign up for a webinar,” or “Call now,” your call-to-action (CTA) should be clear and compelling.
Example 1:
A dental clinic offered a free teeth-whitening session for new patients. The clear CTA—“Call to schedule your free session today!”—resulted in a 200% increase in appointments.
Example 2:
A SaaS company ran ads with the CTA: “Get a 30-day free trial today.” The campaign boosted signups by 35%.
Step 3: Track and Test Everything
One of Dan’s most famous quotes is: “You can’t improve what you don’t measure.” Direct-response marketing relies on tracking every aspect of your campaign.
What’s your click-through rate?
How many leads did you generate?
What’s your cost per acquisition?
Example:
A real estate agent ran Facebook ads targeting first-time homebuyers. By testing different headlines and images, they reduced their cost per lead by 50%.
Tomorrow, we’ll dive into the art of crafting offers your customers can’t refuse.
To your success,
Kevin
