4. The method according to claim 3, wherein the context information is at least one of a current driving parameter of the vehicle, an image parameter of the user, and an input parameter of an internal device of the vehicle.

5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the internal usage scenario model of the vehicle comprises a parameter or a parameter set that is set for one or more devices of the vehicle according to a preference of the user.

6. The method according to claim 1, wherein after adjusting, by the vehicle-mounted device, the parameter of the vehicle according to the internal usage scenario model, such that the current internal usage scenario of the vehicle is adjusted to the internal first usage scenario, the method further comprises:

detecting, by the vehicle-mounted device, whether there is new feature information, wherein the new feature information is used to represent an internal second usage scenario of the vehicle; and

determining, by the vehicle-mounted device according to the new feature information, whether an internal usage scenario of the vehicle is to be adjusted when there is new feature information.

7. A method for setting an internal usage scenario of a vehicle, comprising:

obtaining, by a network device, identity information of a user and an internal first usage scenario of a vehicle, wherein the user is a user who is using a vehicle in which a vehicle-mounted device is located;

searching, by the network device according to the identity information of the user and the internal first usage scenario, a model file of the network device for an internal usage scenario model of the vehicle, wherein the internal usage scenario model corresponds to the identity information of the user and the internal first usage scenario;

sending, by the network device, the internal usage scenario model to the vehicle-mounted device, such that the vehicle-mounted device adjusts a parameter of the vehicle according to the internal usage scenario model in order to adjust a current internal usage scenario of the vehicle to the internal first usage scenario;

receiving, by the network device, a modified parameter of the vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted device; and

updating, by the network device, a parameter that corresponds to the modified parameter and that is in the model file of the network device with the modified parameter.

8. The method according to claim 7, wherein after obtaining, by the network device, the identity information of the user, the method comprises:

searching, by the network device according to the identity information of the user, a database of the network device for an identification file corresponding to the identity information of the user; and

sending the identification file to the vehicle-mounted device.

9. The method according to claim 7, wherein before obtaining, by the network device, the internal first usage scenario of a vehicle, the method further comprises:

receiving, by the network device, feature information sent by the vehicle-mounted device, wherein the feature information is used to represent the internal first usage scenario; and

searching, by the network device according to the feature information, an identification file of the network device for a usage scenario corresponding to the feature information.
