"Horizon (09660) and Qinzhou Intelligent Navigation deep synergy, the industry's first single journey 6M urban NOA mass delivery."
On January 21st, the Ideal AD Pro 4.0 was released, and the industry's first end-to-end urban NOA solution based on Horizon (09660) Single Journey 6M chip was officially delivered.
On January 21, 2026, the Ideal AD Pro 4.0 was officially delivered and installed in the industry's first end-to-end urban NOA solution based on Horizon's (09660) single horizon 6M chip. This solution was developed by Ideal Cars with the collaboration of Lightboat Smart Navigation, specifically designed for urban travel, using 128TOPS extreme computing power to achieve a superior urban NOA experience. It is installed in the Ideal L series intelligent renewal version of the AD Pro model. As the cooperation projects based on the 6M chip are gradually delivered in mass production, Horizon will accelerate the advancement of urban assisted driving into a new stage of widespread popularity.

With powerful computational support, 128TOPS computing power brings an outstanding experience
Currently, urban assisted driving is accelerating in popularity, and users expect to upgrade from usable to user-friendly. By accurately understanding user needs, the city NOA system built on the single horizon 6M chip has human-like defensive driving capabilities, ensuring driving safety throughout the journey. It can anticipate and defend against high-risk scenarios in advance, covering a variety of daily urban travel scenes for users, showing a just right rhythm and effortless comfort on all types of public roads and complex road topologies. It becomes an efficient and comfortable travel companion for users.

Behind the excellent experience is the highly integrated software and hardware. The system is based on the 6M chip and utilizes the 128TOPS high-efficiency computing power to achieve better safety and traffic efficiency in the same configuration. The 6M chip is equipped with Horizon's new generation BPU Nash architecture, supporting the fusion of multimodal sensors such as cameras, LiDAR, and mm-wave radar to ensure reliable perception in complex driving scenarios. With its high-bandwidth computing advantage, it can efficiently support advanced algorithm models such as Transformer, achieving lightweight urban assisted driving and memory driving functions with a single chip. Additionally, through deep coordination between algorithms and hardware design, the 6M chip can significantly optimize computing performance and power consumption, effectively reducing system complexity and overall costs. The 6M chip lays a solid technical and cost foundation for the scale landing of urban NOA, promoting advanced assisted driving to mainstream users and making the future of intelligent driving accessible to all.

Strong collaboration sets a model for industrial ecological cooperation
The officially delivered city NOA solution based on the single horizon 6M chip is not only a strong collaboration between Horizon, Lightboat Smart Navigation, and Ideal Cars to create the optimal intelligent driving solution but also signifies the completion of a complete closed-loop from technical research and development to mass delivery by the three parties.
Since the strategic cooperation reached in May 2022, Horizon and Lightboat Smart Navigation have jointly set many industry records: from the first mass production of advanced assisted driving solutions based on the 5 chip to efficiently completing the full-stack function development and real-car deployment based on the 6 chip in just two weeks, to now the first mass-produced city NOA solution based on the single horizon 6M chip. With solid engineering capabilities, the two parties continue to lead in technology, products, and mass production.
Ideal Cars, as a long-term close partner of Horizon, has also been working together every step of the way: Ideal Cars globally launched the Ideal L9, L8, L7, and L6 models with AD Pro driving hardware upgrades, featuring the Horizon 6M chip, to help the Ideal L series win market reputation with excellent assisted driving experiences, becoming the benchmark for intelligent driving in the minds of users in terms of safety, reliability, and user-friendliness.
Additionally, Horizon has also partnered with Bosch, Denso, Coolridge, and Continental's Smart Driving Division to jointly promote the mass production deployment of urban assisted driving solutions based on the single horizon 6M chip and introduce them to the $10,000 national car market. Therefore, Horizon will usher in a new round of mass production outbreaks, once again demonstrating that industry ecological collaboration is the key to promoting the popularization process.
