HERE, neueHCT To Advance Global Intelligent Driving Expansion

KUALA LUMPUR, April 28 (Bernama) -- HERE Technologies, the mapping and location data company, has announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with neueHCT, the intelligent driving company jointly established by Horizon Robotics and AUMOVIO.

The partnership is focused on strengthening next-generation intelligent driving programmes and full-scenario Navigation on Autopilot (NOA) expansion for global automakers, accelerating the progression from L2+ capabilities toward higher levels of automation, including L4 and robotaxi use cases across international markets such as Europe and the Gulf region.

In addition, the partnership brings together neueHCT’s intelligent driving and automotive robotics software with HERE’s artificial intelligence (AI)-powered live map and location services to enable faster innovation in NOA and intelligent vehicle decision-making across diverse vehicle segments.

By integrating AI-driven perception, planning and control software with high precision, real-time global map data, the two companies aim to deliver more capable, safer and scalable intelligent driving systems, according to HERE in a statement.

This collaboration also addresses data compliance and localisation requirements for international markets, supporting smoother lane-level guidance, enhanced hazard awareness and improved driving safety across regions.

HERE provides globally consistent map data, cloud-based services, and an automotive-grade platform widely adopted by global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), while neueHCT contributes deep expertise in intelligent driving software research and development, mature NOA product solutions, and large-scale mass production experience with leading Chinese automakers.

Together, the partnership creates a pathway for China-origin intelligent driving and automotive robotics technologies to scale globally, supporting OEMs as they expand advanced driving programmes across international markets.
