Nissan & Wayve Sign Definitive Agreements to Deliver Next-Generation Driver Assistance Technology - CleanTechnica

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. and AI company Wayve have signed definitive agreements to collaborate on integrating Wayve’s embodied AI technology into Nissan’s next-generation ProPILOT advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS). Building on Nissan’s existing ProPILOT series—which began in 2016 with single-lane highway assistance and evolved to multi-lane and hands-off functionality by 2019—this partnership aims to enhance driver assistance capabilities across a wide range of Nissan vehicles. A prototype unveiled in September 2025 showcased the integration of Wayve’s AI Driver software with Nissan’s “Ground Truth Perception” system, which uses next-generation LiDAR, demonstrating smooth and safe driving in both highway and complex urban environments. The collaboration will enable the deployment of Wayve AI Driver within mass-produced Nissan vehicles, starting with a model planned for release in Japan in fiscal year 2027. Nissan is the first automaker to commit to scaling Wayve’s embodied AI technology across multiple vehicle segments globally,
