As VinFast continues to expand its market presence in Europe, the Vietnamese company is committed to building a technology-driven ecosystem centered on smart mobility and sustainable innovation. In the European market, where consumers and regulators place increasing emphasis on software-defined vehicles and intelligent transportation solutions, this strategic positioning is particularly important.

In this collaboration, VinFast will adopt the NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion 10 hardware platform and integrate Autobrains' Agentic AI (autonomous artificial intelligence) software to achieve autonomous driving capabilities, with the initial goal of developing a Level 4 platform for Southeast Asia. The region's high traffic density, diverse driving behaviors, and highly dynamic urban environments are considered challenging scenarios for validating autonomous driving technology.

For VinFast, this project provides a viable path to bring advanced autonomous driving technology to market, avoiding the high costs that typically hinder large-scale deployment. The hardware and software foundation provided by NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion can significantly reduce the years of system integration work usually required for autonomous driving projects.

The product architecture of the three-party collaboration adopts a modular design, combining vehicle integration, high-performance computing, and Agentic AI software. Unlike traditional end-to-end approaches, Autobrains' Agentic AI activates specific AI agents only when needed for driving tasks, enabling more precise real-time reasoning and lower computational overhead, thereby offering a scalable and cost-effective autonomous driving technology roadmap.

Professor Dr. Duong Nguyen, Deputy General Manager of Global ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) at VinFast, stated that the company is committed to building scalable and easy-to-use autonomous driving solutions through collaboration with global technology leaders. Mr. Igal Raichelgauz, CEO of Autobrains, noted that the parties are launching the first Agentic Level 4 solution for mass-produced vehicles, aiming to address real-world complexity at scale. Mr. Rishi Dhall, Vice President of Automotive Business at NVIDIA, believes that building VinFast's Level 4 project on the NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion platform can accelerate the development of autonomous vehicles designed for complex driving conditions and continuously improved.

In the European market, VinFast currently offers the VF 6 compact SUV and the VF 8 D-segment SUV. To support customers' full-cycle vehicle ownership experience, the company is expanding its sales and after-sales network by partnering with established dealer groups in key European markets.
