Visteon, a global leader in automotive electronics, and China’s Volcano Engine, the cloud service platform under ByteDance, unveiled a cutting-edge AI-powered smart cockpit solution on Wednesday at Auto Shanghai 2025.

Integrating Visteon’s high-performance domain controller with Volcano Engine’s Doubao large language model, the joint innovation redefines in-vehicle user experience and paves the way for smarter, more personalized mobility.

The cooperation comes as vehicles become increasingly intelligent and connected, consumer expectations have evolved toward more immersive, emotional, and seamless human-machine interactions.

The new solution leverages two core innovations—edge-cloud collaboration and multimodal interaction—to deliver responsive, low-latency, and emotionally aware AI services across diverse driving scenarios.

Also, the modular AI framework enables fast and cost-efficient deployment across vehicle platforms.

Carmakers can embed their brand identity through custom knowledge graphs and co-create intelligent scenarios powered by Doubao’s large language model, said the companies.

“Large language models are transforming the way people interact with vehicle systems,” said Wei Wei, vice-president of Visteon and president of Visteon China.

“By combining Visteon’s powerful in-vehicle compute with Volcano Engine’s AI capabilities, we’re creating a robust, scalable platform that brings stable, intuitive AI experiences into the car,” said Wei.

Liwei Yang, General Manager of Volcano Engine Automotive and Head of the Institute for Smart Mobility and Embodied AI, echoed the sentiment,

“We are proud to collaborate with an industry leader like Visteon. Together, we are applying cutting-edge AI to reshape vehicle interaction and bring real-world use cases to life, from personalized content to predictive services.”

The debut of this intelligent cockpit platform signals both companies’ commitment to leading the automotive industry into the AI era.

As smart cockpits become the emotional and functional core of next-generation vehicles, Visteon and Volcano Engine plan to deepen their partnership, expand application scenarios, and accelerate innovation through joint ecosystem collaboration.

Visteon is a global technology company serving the mobility industry, focused on delivering advanced cockpit electronics, display systems, AI-powered software, and integrated EV architecture.
