Volvo to launch hands-free point-to-point driving by 2030 with Nvidia

Volvo plans to launch a Level 2++ hands-free, point-to-point driving system by the end of the decade, built on Nvidia's Hyperion platform and Alpamayo software. The system will handle urban environments including traffic lights and unprotected left turns, without lidar.

• The Level 2++ system will run on Nvidia's Hyperion platform
• Alpamayo software uses reasoning models to plan steering and braking
• Lidar is not included but could be added later
• Rollout across Volvo's lineup expected before the end of the decade
