NIO officially released a new version of its intelligent system, "Banyan Rong 3.0.0," on August 28th, covering five major areas: NOMI, panoramic digital space, AI intelligent chassis, NIO Link panoramic connectivity, and upgraded driving experience. With over 130 new features added and optimized, it brings a new experience that leads the generation.
The first version of Banyan 3.0.0, a new intelligent system built by NIO based on AI core underlying capabilities, deeply integrates AI technology into multiple functional domains. This update is not only a breakthrough in underlying technology, but also provides users with a more personalized and intelligent travel experience through innovative applications.
With NIO's strong engineering research and development capabilities and full stack self-developed technology, based on NIO's advanced layout of software and hardware platforms, full stack self-developed atomization capabilities, and layered decoupling of technical architecture design, the "NT.Banyan Rong" intelligent system greatly improves iteration efficiency and user experience. Deeply integrate the user's driving scenario into the definition of cabin experience, upgrade the intelligent cabin full scene interaction with AI technology, and achieve a better driving experience.
NIO will fully connect its community service system, including battery swapping and services, with the intelligent cockpit. Based on the open SkyCore platform, it is fully compatible with third-party service applications and ecosystems, greatly expanding the boundaries of the cockpit ecosystem. In the integration of cabin ecology, provide systematic deep integration capabilities to make the experience of ecology in the cabin more seamless.
AI intelligent chassis continues to grow, more reassuring and smoother
In January 2024, NIO was the industry's first to launch the "4D Comfort Navigation" feature in Banyan 2.4.0, which uses multi-sensor fusion sensing technology to record and analyze various road events, achieve active suspension adjustment, and provide a more comfortable driving experience. Since its launch, this feature has identified over 180 million bumpy events, covering more than 94% of counties and cities across the country, and has received widespread praise from users.
AI intelligent chassis
The true soul of intelligent chassis lies in AI capability. NIO has pioneered the use of multi-sensor fusion perception to identify road events, allowing vehicles to recognize and remember four-dimensional information in the horizontal, vertical, vertical, and temporal dimensions. The cloud is used to train collective intelligence shared by all car owners, allowing each vehicle to benefit from comfort and safety. Only with the full stack self-developed capabilities of super sensing system, central computing, end-to-end cloud integration, and collective intelligence can this be achieved.
With the release of Banyan 3.0.0, "4D Comfort Navigation" has been upgraded to "4D Global Comfort Navigation". 4D Global Comfort Navigation "can be activated without navigation, greatly enhancing the experience of daily commuting and familiar road use; In addition, the "bump index" has been introduced, which displays the smoothness of the road surface and the motion status of the vehicle through visual curves, allowing users to more intuitively feel the adjustment effect of the intelligent chassis. The '4D Global Comfort Navigation' has been extended to ES6 and EC6 models, further expanding the beneficiary user base.
"4D Global Comfort Navigation" covers vehicle models
With the development of NIO's AI intelligent chassis technology and data accumulation mining, we will continue to explore richer application scenarios. Banyan 3.0.0 also introduces the "Rear Exclusive Driving Mode" for the rear seats, which is designed specifically for rear passengers. By optimizing power output, suspension vibration filtering, and energy recovery, it significantly reduces dizziness caused by acceleration and deceleration, providing a national guest level "safe, smooth, and non dizziness" rear seating experience.
Eight AI Innovation Experiences, Make NOMI Your Powerful Assistant
NIO has pioneered the "NOMI Agents" multi-agent framework in the industry, which reconstructs NOMI's cognitive and complex task processing capabilities through AI models, allowing NOMI to learn how to use tools such as calling search, navigation, and reservation services. Meanwhile, NOMI is capable of complex planning and orchestration based on the complexity and time span of the task. NOMI Agents' multi-agent system enables the cabin experience to evolve from "single point functionality" to "active intelligence", making NOMI your more capable assistant.
NOMI Agents multi-agent framework
This upgrade of NOMI brings six core multi-agent functions, including NOMI parking assistant, NOMI guard, NOMI service butler, NOMI exploration and discovery, NOMI DJ, and NOMI travel memories. These functions, from daily parking to service butler, enhance the convenience of users' car use and save them time. For example, NOMI Parking Assistant intelligently recommends the best parking lot, and NOMI Guard Function provides guards to ensure that major events are not missed and minor events are not disturbed; NOMI can also intelligently recognize highlights during the journey and generate exciting memory videos.
Banyan 3.0.0 version deepens the innovative experience of NOMI, adding NOMI suggestions and NOMI full cabin memory functions to provide users with more proactive and personalized services. NOMI suggests proactively providing intelligent suggestions such as parking guards and seat adjustments based on user habits and contexts, to provide a new form of in car intelligent services for the intelligent cockpit; The NOMI full cabin memory linkage quick scene further enhances the convenience of using the car, providing personalized services for every passenger in the entire vehicle.
SkyOS · Tianshu enhances panoramic digital space, making it more immersive, personalized, and outstanding
In Banyan 3.0.0, NIO has comprehensively upgraded the panoramic digital space, relying on the SkyOS-C digital cockpit full stack architecture and integrating AI core underlying capabilities to create the first in vehicle cloud integrated native intelligent runtime. By introducing end side models and NOMI Agents' multi-agent framework, various atomic capability domains and subsystems are connected downwards, giving rise to new AI native applications and bringing a more diverse cockpit experience to the Banyan 3.0.0 intelligent system.

The Banyan 3.0.0 version has undergone a comprehensive upgrade in panoramic digital spatial sound quality, fully leveraging the power of the 7.1.4 immersive sound system. Through AI spatial audio encoding and panoramic mixing technology, ordinary sound sources lacking panoramic sound can also unlock the 7.1.4 panoramic sound experience, providing a variety of high-quality sound source choices including Dolby panoramic sound, making the music experience more immersive. Introduced the industry's first professional car tuning tool, "Expert Equalizer Pro EQ", which can finely adjust sound effects according to personal preferences, making everyone a tuning expert. With AI intelligent accompaniment, AI sound filters, and AI intelligent sound effects, "Mailess KTV 2.0" allows you to experience the fun of luxury mobile KTV anytime and anywhere, and everyone is a skilled singer.
Build an open ecosystem platform centered around cars for high-quality services and applications. With the upgrade of SkyCore in Banyan 3.0.0, more "native" applications and services will be integrated through Flux lightweight applications and in car mini programs. Based on the SOA architecture, the atomization capability design integrates basic application services such as accounts, cabin capabilities such as NOMI interaction, and car controls such as seats and ambient lights to create a better cabin application experience.
