Nvidia is becoming a central supplier of autonomous driving platforms, with several global automakers — including Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Volvo, Stellantis, Toyota, GM, BYD and Geely — multiplying their partnerships with the chipmaker. Nvidia also presents Halos SAFE, an approach combining simulation, road testing and continuous monitoring to verify the real-world safety of autonomous vehicles. Stellantis illustrates the acceleration made possible by AI, with a hands-free system developed in six weeks and a 24-month vehicle development target, while conducting demonstrations with Wayve in Turin and a collaboration with Nvidia in France. The national aspects differ: Italy hosts the Turin demonstrations, France sees a Wayve-Stellantis-Nvidia collaboration in connection with the government, the United States concentrates validation tools and development gains, and Sweden follows the expansion of Volvo's partnership with Nvidia.
