WeRide Inc. Launches Its Proprietary General-Purpose Simulation Model to Connect Real and Simulated Worlds to Support AVs

WeRide GENESIS builds us a digi1qtal universe that can be generated, scaled, and evolved on demand. With it, our AI drivers can familiarize themselves with the driving environment of any city worldwide within minutes, laying a solid technical foundation for the global commercialization of autonomous driving. This represents a true leap forward in industry capability.

WeRide Genesis is built to overcome the challenges of commercializing autonomous driving on a global scale. The AV simulation model adopts four major AI modules that trim millions of kilometres of road testing into a few days of virtual simulation. This leads to the creation of a true ‘acceleration flywheel’ for WeRide’s technology evolution. The model supports diverse urban road conditions, sensor perspectives, and vehicle configurations.

WeRide Genesis assists various AVs, including Level 2++ advanced driver-assistance systems, to autonomous Level 4 Robotaxis. It will also train AI drivers worldwide and test their skills on a single platform without the need for separate simulations. This model will ultimately reduce time and costs compared to conventional road testing.

WeRide Inc. (NASDAQ:WRD) is an investment holding company with a core focus on autonomous driving products and solutions in China. The company’s product categories include robotaxis, robobus, robovan, and robosweeper.

While we acknowledge the potential of WRD to grow, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
