At the highly anticipated NIO IN 2024 Innovation and Technology Day, the major breakthrough in NIO's intelligent driving field has attracted great attention from both inside and outside the industry. Mr. Ren Shaoqing, Vice President and leader in NIO's intelligent driving research and development, officially announced a milestone achievement in China's intelligent driving field amidst enthusiastic applause from the audience: the birth of NIO World Model (NWM).

As China's first intelligent driving world model, NWM not only represents NIO's profound accumulation and forward-looking layout in intelligent driving technology, but also signifies a new height for China's intelligent driving technology. With its outstanding ability to understand full-scale data, long-term sequence deduction mechanism, and efficient decision-making system as its core, this model can accurately simulate and deduce 216 possible driving scenarios in an astonishing 100 milliseconds, quickly identifying and executing the optimal driving strategy.

It is worth mentioning that NWM, as an advanced generative model, demonstrates its astonishing creativity and adaptability. With just a short 3-second driving video as a "spark of inspiration," NWM can cleverly extend and generate a coherent, high-quality driving video lasting up to 120 seconds, providing unprecedented convenience for the visualization and validation of intelligent driving technology.

In addition, NWM is equipped with an efficient closed-loop simulation testing system, which has undergone comprehensive and rigorous testing in complex and changing interactive scenarios, fully validating its powerful performance and stability. This feature undoubtedly lays a solid foundation for the continuous optimization and iteration of NIO's intelligent driving technology.

Vice President Ren Shaoqing further revealed at the press conference that as a diverse autoregressive generative model, NWM minimizes its dependence on data labeling through advanced self-supervised learning mechanisms, greatly improving learning efficiency and flexibility. He also emphasized that the perfect integration of NWM and NIO's custom-designed intelligent driving chip, Shenji, will bring users an unprecedented intelligent and safe driving experience, ushering in a new era of intelligent driving.

Looking ahead, based on the powerful capabilities of NWM, NIO is accelerating the comprehensive upgrade of its intelligent safety assistance system. The upcoming Intelligent Safety Assistance 2.0 version will achieve a comprehensive leap from standard scenarios to complex real-world environments, providing users with intelligent safety protection in all scenarios, all directions, and all speeds, ensuring worry-free and secure journeys.
