Lucid Motors will use Nvidia's auto-grade chips to power autonomous driving

Lucid Motors will use Nvidia's auto-grade computer chips in its vehicles to enable advanced driver assistance and autonomous driving features, the companies announced Tuesday. The automaker's current and future lineup will be built on Nvidia's end-to-end Drive Hyperion platform. Hyperion is the latest iteration of Nvidia's Drive platform that allows automakers to customize their own driving features. This new hardware will form the basis for a new suite of driving features, including advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), automated parking, and autonomous driving, the companies said. Lucid released its first EV, the Lucid Air, last year and is already working on a follow-up: a long-range electric SUV code-named Project Gravity.
