Hyundai Motor to roll out in-house driver-assist system in 2029
Hyundai will use Nvidia to speed up Level 2+ and Level 2++ systems while it keeps training its in-house Atria platform with fleet data.
- Hyundai Motor Group will launch vehicles equipped with proprietary software in late 2029, two years later than planned, turning to Nvidia in the interim to accelerate deployment. "Our partnership with Nvidia is not about leaving our destiny entirely in their hands," Park Min-woo, a president at Hyundai Motor Group, told a media briefing.
- Park Min-woo, a former Nvidia executive who joined Hyundai in January, spearheaded this collaboration, marking a departure from predecessor Song Chang-hyeon's focus on internal software development before his December departure.
- Powered by Nvidia's Hyperion 10 platform, Hyundai vehicles will initially bypass expensive lidar sensors in favor of cameras and radar; Level 2+ and Level 2++ systems handle complex urban driving, though both still require driver supervision.
- With annual sales exceeding 7 million vehicles, Hyundai and affiliate Kia Corp plan to harvest data from their global fleet to train their proprietary software platform, Atria.
- Considering lidar for future Level 3 systems, Hyundai is emphasizing sensor redundancy for safety; by 2033, the company expects to surpass competitors in accumulated driving data while deepening collaboration on humanoid robots developed by Hyundai-owned Boston Dynamics.

Hyundai will launch vehicles equipped with its proprietary driver assistance software at the end of 2029, two years later, using Nvidia during this period to speed up deployment. The Korean assembler will partner with the chip manufacturer to launch advanced driver assistance systems, known as Level 2+ and Level 2++, in 2028, said a Hyundai executive. The delay in the internal development of automated driving software leaves Hyundai more depende…
Image ID: /clip/3ccb2621-ce60-4705-b5fa-b56ad5d91f92_media-libre-aspect-ratio_default_0.jpg Hyundai Motor Group knows that the battle of autonomous driving is won not only with more sensors or a more powerful computer, but by learning more quickly what really happens on the street. For that it has put in full operation its Data Flywheel, a system that collects real situations, trains artificial intelligence, validates changes and deploys improve…
In a narrow alley lined with residential areas on both sides, an autonomous vehicle recognized a delivery truck parked on the right, swerved to the left to avoid it, and passed. Subsequently, upon spotting a cyclist, it reduced its speed from 16 km/h to 4–5 km/h. In the unprotected left-turn section, it let two vehicles going straight pass first before proceeding slowly.
Hyundai pushes in-house autonomy to 2029, leans on Nvidia from 2028
Hyundai Motor Group will launch its driver-assistance software in late 2029, two years behind schedule. The automaker is partnering with Nvidia to deploy advanced systems in 2028. This shift highlights challenges in developing automated driving software internally. Hyundai plans to co-design technology and use data to refine its own software platform. The company aims to surpass competitors in accumulated driving data by 2033.
