flag XPENG and Peking University created FastDriveVLA, a more efficient AI system for self-driving cars, cutting processing load by 7.5 times while keeping high accuracy.

flag XPENG, with Peking University, has developed FastDriveVLA, a visual token pruning framework for autonomous driving AI accepted at AAAI 2026, one of the world’s top AI conferences. flag The system reduces computational load by nearly 7.5 times by focusing on key visual elements like vehicles and lanes, cutting tokens from 3,249 to 812 while maintaining high accuracy on the nuScenes benchmark. flag Inspired by human attention, it uses a reconstruction-based method to improve efficiency in end-to-end driving systems. flag This marks XPENG’s second major AI recognition in 2025, following a CVPR WAD presentation and the launch of VLA 2.0, showcasing its full-stack AI capabilities in advancing L4 autonomous driving.
