Volvo expands Nvidia partnership for new automated driving system

Volvo and Nvidia announced an expanded version of their near decade-long partnership, under which Volvo will integrate three Nvidia technologies: the Hyperion sensor and compute hardware, the Alpamayo driving software stack, and the Halos safety evaluation layer. The system is designed to handle both urban streets and highways, combining AI-based and classical software approaches with multiple sensor types for redundancy. Volvo did not disclose financial terms or specify which model will launch first, though executives said a new vehicle using the stack will arrive within the decade.

Volvo to deploy Nvidia-based hands-free driving system by 2030

Volvo announced it will use Nvidia's autonomous driving technology, including the Hyperion hardware platform and Alpamayo software, to build a Level 2++ system enabling hands-free, point-to-point driving. The system is designed to handle complex urban scenarios like intersections and unprotected turns without direct driver input, and will not initially include lidar.
