Current status

WRD 3.0 has production design wins across 30+ vehicle programs with GAC and Chery, an L3 proof-of-concept with Mercedes-Benz disclosed on the August 12, 2026 Q2 call, and is co-developed with Bosch on its automotive-grade domain controller. As of July 2026 the one-stage end-to-end solution began international on-road testing in Germany, France, and Japan. On September 15, 2026 GAC AION launched the 2027 AION i60 with WRD 3.0 available from delivery, which WeRide called a move from the AION N60 validation car into multi-model mass production. The company credits the stack with eight China Urban Intelligent Driving Competition championships. Cumulative deliveries passed 30,000 units by Q2 2026, with WeRide targeting 100,000 units by year-end 2026 and 500,000 in 2027.

Upcoming milestones2

Announced next steps from WeRide that mention WRD 3.0.

  1. 2026-2031

    Ramp HPC 3.0 toward the 200,000-vehicle Lenovo plan

    Move the WeRide-Lenovo agreement from announcement to volume by bringing the HPC 3.0 compute platform (Lenovo AD1 + NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor) into production and jointly deploying 200,000 Level 4 vehicles - robotaxis, robobuses, and robosweepers - globally over five years, leveraging its ~50% suite-cost reduction to improve per-vehicle economics. As of September 16, 2026 WeRide had still not disclosed interim unit counts or ramp data specific to the Lenovo plan since the April 2026 announcement, though the GXR product page lists HPC 3.0 and 2,000 TOPS as current GXR hardware and the company's separate WRD 3.0 ADAS line (which also runs on Lenovo-partnered compute) passed 30,000 cumulative deliveries in Q2 2026.

  2. 2026-2027

    Broaden ADAS production programs

    Turn WRD 3.0 design wins (30+ production programs at Chery and GAC, plus an L3 proof-of-concept with Mercedes-Benz disclosed on the August 12, 2026 Q2 call) into volume. On September 15, 2026 GAC AION launched the 2027 AION i60 with WRD 3.0 available from delivery, which WeRide called a step from the AION N60 validation car into multi-model mass production. The Bosch-partnered one-stage end-to-end L2++ solution began international on-road testing in Germany, France, and Japan in July 2026. Cumulative deliveries passed 30,000 units by Q2 2026; the company's stated targets remain 100,000 units by year-end 2026 and 500,000 in 2027. WeRide said it will keep working with GAC AION and other GAC Group brands to put WRD 3.0 on more models.
