When asked whether the South Korean carmaker has forged partnership with Nvidia and Intel, both top chipmakers for self-driving cars, Chung said “collaboration” with two firms is happening.
Chung attended Nvidia’s press conference at CES for two years in a row, according to Hyundai officials.
The South Korean auto giant plans to announce its official partnership with Aurora to develop a self-driving system within its vehicle. The first model used in the piloting will be its fuel cell vehicle, set to make its debut at the CES on Monday.
