Based on the National Vehicle Networking Industry Standard System Construction Guide (Intelligent Connected Vehicle) (2023 Edition), and following a thorough analysis of the intelligent connected vehicle standards system, this paper proposes a development pathway for standards in the intelligent networking domain and directions for coordinating international standard regulations, with a focus on automotive intelligence, network connectivity, automotive electronics, and comprehensive safety. Through an in-depth study of the technical system of driving automation, representative products, and application scenarios, a systematic framework and standardization route for advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving systems (ADS) have been established. By analyzing the technological and application scenarios of vehicular network communications, a standard system for network functions and applications, along with a standardization route, has been proposed. The current research status of automotive electromagnetic compatibility, electronic environmental and reliability assessment, automotive chips, and automotive electronics subfields has been reviewed, leading to the proposal of a standardization route for automotive electronics. Considering comprehensive safety, a four-dimensional safety concept for intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs) has been introduced, encompassing functional safety, anticipated functional safety, cybersecurity, and data security. The key components of each safety standard system have been discussed, and the standardization routes for these safety standards have been outlined. Finally, the paper explores the development of international standards and regulations for ICVs and the collaborative relationship between Chinese standards and international standards and regulations. In alignment with the developmental requirements of China’s intelligent connected vehicle (ICV) technology and standards, as well as the harmonization trends in international standards and regulations, this paper offers strategic insights and recommendations for the establishment of China’s ICV standard system and the development of key standards.
