NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion is a Level 4-ready platform for autonomous driving, built on the NVIDIA Halos safety system.
NVIDIA announced a major expansion of the NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion robotaxi-ready platform ecosystem, bringing together global automakers, manufacturing and autonomous vehicle software ecosystem partners. The expansion also urges ride-hailing mobility providers to build and expand level 4-ready robotaxi fleets.
NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion is a Level 4-ready platform for autonomous driving, built on the NVIDIA Halos safety system. It combines high-performance DRIVE AGX in-vehicle computing, the Halos OS based on the safety-certified DriveOS, a multimodal sensor suite, and DRIVE AV software for automated and autonomous driving.
“Autonomous mobility is entering its industrial scaling moment,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Vehicles are becoming robots, and robotaxi fleets will require AI infrastructure that can perceive, reason and operate safely in the real world. NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion gives the world’s automakers, AV developers and mobility networks a common level 4-ready foundation — uniting compute, sensors, safety software and a global ecosystem to bring robotaxis from pilots to everyday transportation at scale.”
What does NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion offer?
As more manufacturers, AV developers and mobility partners join the DRIVE Hyperion ecosystem, NVIDIA offers a level 4-ready platform that enables the global automotive industry to build and scale robotaxi and AV fleets.
NVIDIA is collaborating with automakers, tier 1 suppliers, software and mobility providers in Asia, Europe and the Middle East to scale robotaxi deployments.
Collaborations & Partnerships
Foxconn is expanding its strategic collaboration with NVIDIA to accelerate the development and planned deployment of level 4-ready robotaxi fleets built on NVIDIA. The effort combines Foxconn’s contract design and manufacturing services with NVIDIA’s DRIVE Hyperion platform. This will support the rapid integration, scaling and deployment of level 4 electric vehicles — starting in Taiwan, with Kaohsiung expected to serve as an early deployment city, and expanding across Asia.
“Autonomous mobility is a strategic focus of Foxconn’s EV initiative,” said Young Liu, chairman of Foxconn. “By leveraging strategic partnerships and NVIDIA’s capabilities, we are accelerating the deployment of level 4 robotaxi technology, with Foxconn providing high-performance computing and sensor integration to enable a worldwide rollout across communities and cities.”
VinFast is working with Autobrains to bring level 4 vehicles built on NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion to Southeast Asia, combining VinFast’s vehicle development and manufacturing capabilities with Autobrains’ autonomous driving software stack.
In Europe, Uber is also working with Autobrains to launch a robotaxi program in Munich built on NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion. The effort further expands Uber’s growing reach in the European ride-hailing market, with more details on the selected automaker to be announced later this year.
HUMAIN is working to bring NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion-powered robotaxis to the Middle East, expanding the platform’s regional footprint. The collaboration leverages HUMAIN’s AI and mobility ecosystem to support the development and deployment of level 4-ready autonomous transportation solutions across the region.
“Autonomous mobility will become one of the defining AI platforms of the next decade,” said Tareq Amin, CEO of HUMAIN. “By working with NVIDIA, HUMAIN is helping enable the infrastructure, intelligence and operational scale needed to develop and support the future of level 4-ready transportation in Saudi Arabia. This collaboration reflects our broader vision to help build AI-native infrastructure platforms that connect the digital and physical worlds at scale.”
