The Chinese electric car manufacturer Nio is bringing ChatGPT into the vehicle. The manufacturer integrates Microsoft Azure Open AI technology into its voice control Nomi. The rollout of the AI function for all vehicle models available in Europe on the NT2.0 platform began in early April.

The GPT function is intended to complement the capabilities of Nomi, the in-vehicle assistant, by answering more complex enquiries in intuitive language and providing information about the vehicle, such as the battery charge level. This allows the driver to get answers to their questions without having to take their eyes off the road or their hands off the steering wheel, thereby reducing distractions.

Easy interaction

In addition to personal greetings and daily weather information, Nomi GPT now offers further interactions. The virtual assistant provides information on how to operate certain vehicle functions based on prompts. Drivers can ask, for example, how to adjust the exterior mirrors or check the tire pressure. In addition, there are other functions for interaction. A new FAQ feature allows drivers and passengers to get to know Nomi better. The user experience is set to be further personalized and interacting with the AI assistant should be fun. For those who like, they can ask Nomi about her favorite music, game preferences, or her opinion on other AI systems. Furthermore, one can learn about the automaker, its founder, and other products.

The rollout of the GPT function for all vehicle models available from the car manufacturer in Europe on the NT2.0 platform started on April 5, 2024, and will initially be provided in English, German and Norwegian via firmware-over-the-air updates (FOTA). All networked functions in the vehicle's system architecture are updated with FOTA.

New update for OS Banyan

Concurrently with the GPT function, Nio has announced a major update to its Banyan operating system, which enables all smart features. Thanks to the updates, drivers can now look forward to improvements in charging, assisted driving, navigation and media usage, connectivity, and the personal assistant system Nomi.
