SAN JOSE, Calif., March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GTC -- NVIDIA today announced that NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion™ platform adoption is growing expansively, including with global automakers BYD, Geely, Isuzu and Nissan, as well as leading mobility providers — reflecting rapid momentum toward safe, scalable autonomous vehicle (AV) development. Standardizing on DRIVE Hyperion — supported by the NVIDIA Halos OS safety architecture — enables these partners to accelerate validation cycles and streamline global deployment strategies. By using a standardized reference architecture that integrates compute, sensors, networking and safety systems, manufacturers and mobility leaders can achieve faster fleet learning and more efficient global scaling. “The autonomous vehicle revolution is here — the first multitrillion-dollar robotics industry,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Everything that moves will eventually be autonomous. The NVIDIA Hyperion platform and our Alpamayo open reasoning models give vehicles the ability to perceive their surroundings, reason through complex situations and act safely — making scalable, level 4 autonomy possible.” DRIVE Hyperion Scales L4 Vehicle Programs and Robotaxi PlatformsLeading automakers BYD, Geely and Nissan (powered by Wayve software) are developing next-generation level 4 AV programs built on NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion production-ready compute and sensor architecture.
