According to the disclosed detailed roadmap, the plan will begin commercial operations in the first half of 2027 in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area. As the technological architecture matures, the network is expected to rapidly expand to 28 core cities across four continents by 2028, with the goal of ultimately deploying over 100,000 L4 autonomous vehicles equipped with NVIDIA's cutting-edge AI technology on the Uber platform. "The autonomous vehicle revolution has arrived—this is the first robotic industry to break the trillion-dollar scale," emphasized NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang. "All mobile objects will eventually achieve autonomy. Through the NVIDIA Hyperion platform and the Alpamayo open inference model, we empower vehicles with three core capabilities: precise perception of the surrounding environment, intelligent reasoning in complex scenarios, and safe execution of driving decisions—this lays the technological foundation for scalable L4 autonomous driving." To support this massive transportation network, NVIDIA has deeply integrated the global automotive industry chain through its latest DRIVE Hyperion 10 platform. Several mainstream automakers, including BYD, Geely, Nissan (NSANY.US), Hyundai, Kia, and Isuzu, have officially confirmed the adoption of this architecture to develop the next generation of L4 vehicles. Among them, BYD, Geely, and Nissan are developing autonomous driving projects based on the DRIVE Hyperion computing and sensor architecture; Isuzu is collaborating with TIER IV to create L4 autonomous buses using the DRIVE AGX Thor system-level chip. In terms of expanding cooperation, NVIDIA's partnership with Hyundai and Kia has further deepened. Kim Heung-soo, Executive Vice President and Head of the Global Strategy Office at Hyundai Motor, stated: "Expanding cooperation with NVIDIA is a key step for the Hyundai Motor Group to achieve its vision of safe and reliable autonomous driving. Through a unified group-level cooperation framework, we will strengthen our full-link technological competitiveness from L2+ autonomous driving to L4 driverless taxi services, building a differentiated smart mobility ecosystem." In addition to the autonomous driving field, NVIDIA is continuously deepening its cooperative ecosystem with global robotics manufacturers to strengthen breakthroughs in physical artificial intelligence technology. The list of partners includes over a dozen industry-leading companies such as ABB Robotics, AGIBOT, Agility, CMR Surgical, FANUC, Figure, Hexagon Robotics, KUKA, Medtronic, Skild AI, Universal Robots, World Labs, and YASKAWA. To accelerate the arrival of the intelligent robotics era, NVIDIA officially released the new generation of the Cosmos world model, which integrates the Isaac simulation framework and the Isaac GR00T N technology module to accelerate the transition to intelligent robots At the industrial application level, companies such as AGIBOT, Humanoid, LG Electronics, NEURA Robotics, and Noble Machines have taken the lead in adopting NVIDIA Isaac GR00T N model, driving humanoid robots from the laboratory to large-scale production and accelerating their commercialization process ### Related Stocks - [01211.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/01211.HK.md) - [BYDDF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BYDDF.US.md) - [002594.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/002594.CN.md) - [BYDDY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BYDDY.US.md) - [NVDA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [UBER.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/UBER.US.md) - [UBRL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/UBRL.US.md) - [07388.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07388.HK.md) - [SOXL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXL.US.md) - [NVDY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDY.US.md) - [NVDX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDX.US.md) - [512760.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/512760.CN.md) - [XSD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XSD.US.md) - [512480.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/512480.CN.md) - [SMH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMH.US.md) - [PSI.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PSI.US.md) - [CARZ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CARZ.US.md) - [NVDL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [UBEW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/UBEW.US.md) - [SOXX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXX.US.md) - [FTXL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FTXL.US.md) - [07788.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07788.HK.md) - [159546.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159546.CN.md) - [NVDU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDU.US.md) - [588170.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/588170.CN.md) - [588780.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/588780.CN.md) - [NVDD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDD.US.md) - [NVDQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDQ.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Uber Technologies Inc Stock (UBER) Moved Up by 5.41% on Apr 15: Facts Behind the Movement](https://longbridge.com/en/news/282868634.md) - [Wall Street Financial Group Inc.
