NIO Assisted and Intelligence Driving

Making the vehicle a safe and free mobile living space is our vision. NIO has built up the full-stack NAD capability with perception algorithms, localization, control strategy, and platform software developed in-house. NAD will gradually cover use cases of expressways, urban areas, parking, and battery swap to enable a safer and more relaxing intelligent driving experience from point A to point B.
