BYD officially releases SkyEye 5.0
BYD officially released SkyEye 5.0, and as a flagship model equipped with this system, the 2026 BYD Xia with SkyEye B simultaneously completed a comprehensive upgrade in functionality and user experience. Based on the technical foundation of the Xuanji architecture and empowered by reinforcement learning large models, the 2026 BYD Xia offers three core advantages: ultra-safe, ultra-human-like, and ultra-efficient, providing users with a driving experience comparable to that of a seasoned driver.
I. Ultra-Safe: Building a strong safety defense line, leading the industry in proactive risk avoidance
SkyEye 5.0 considers safety as the absolute bottom line. Through comprehensive technological upgrades, it builds a safety protection system covering all driving scenarios. The strong safety guarantee of 9.33 million AEB automatic emergency braking triggers annually is the source of BYD's confidence.
With this large model upgrade, the 2026 BYD Xia system optimizes automatic emergency braking (AEB). For high-risk scenarios such as alternating light and dark conditions in tunnels and driver blind spots, the AEB system can brake to a complete stop from a speed of 135 km/h when facing a stationary vehicle ahead, achieving industry-leading levels of active safety.
In daily driving scenarios, thanks to the high-precision SR rendering function of the new UI, the 2026 BYD Xia can clearly identify two-wheeled non-motorized vehicles, pedestrians, and even children crossing the road. In low-speed turns or blind spots, the system can anticipate and brake smoothly. Even if the driver is distracted and accidentally presses the accelerator, the accelerator pedal anti-misoperation function can effectively identify this and prevent collisions caused by misoperation.
II. Ultra-Human-like: Replicating the wisdom of experienced drivers, allowing even novice drivers to "navigate complex urban areas"
SkyEye 5.0, based on a reinforcement learning end-to-end large model, deeply learns the driving habits of a large number of experienced drivers. With its perception system, it can identify and warn of potential hazards earlier than experienced drivers, and its actions are equally decisive and precise, exhibiting a highly predictive driving style. In complex road conditions such as those found in urban core areas, bustling streets, and urban villages, and on narrow roads with parked vehicles on both sides, the 2026 Xia can smoothly perform continuous lane changes and evasive maneuvers. When encountering oncoming traffic, it handles the situation with the same decisive and smooth manner as an experienced driver. Even in extremely narrow scenarios (vehicle width + 60cm), it can autonomously plan a route and pass through successfully. Its overall performance is comparable to that of a seasoned driver, reaching the top tier in the industry.
Facing more complex narrow-road U-turns, the driving assistance system's autonomous control of forward and reverse gear switching is crisp and decisive. With precise sensing and control capabilities, it plans the optimal turning path. The 2026 Xia's "God's Eye B" system can complete U-turns in narrow roads with fewer reverse maneuvers than an experienced driver; in wider roads, it minimizes intrusion into the adjacent lane after the U-turn, allowing it to enter the leftmost lane directly without crossing the line in most cases.
III. Ultra-Efficient: A Comprehensive Leap in Travel Efficiency and More Convenient Smart Parking
Based on high-quality data-driven model iterations and upgrades to core functions such as all-scenario detours and U-turns, the God's Eye B system achieves a significant improvement in traffic efficiency while ensuring safety and comfort.
In addition to simulating the driving behavior of experienced drivers, God's Eye B can also "think proactively," intelligently planning commuting routes to save time. During daily rush hour, the system can autonomously decide to switch between the main and auxiliary roads of ring roads and urban expressways based on real-time traffic congestion data from navigation.
Even more adaptable, it can, like an experienced driver, choose routes with traffic lights or smaller roads, but with overall higher traffic efficiency, to avoid congestion and maximize commuting time savings. Its decisive overtaking of slow-moving bicycles and confident navigation through narrow alleys far surpasses mainstream industry levels, integrating humanized driving intelligence and efficient travel into every journey.
This upgrade of God's Eye 5.0 brings an ultra-safe, ultra-human-like, and ultra-efficient driving experience to the 2026 Xia's God's Eye B system, and with the support of reinforcement learning large models and massive vehicle-cloud data, it empowers the system with the ability to continuously evolve. Every journey is a process of deep learning and iterative optimization for the system, truly achieving the goal of "the more you use it, the better it drives, and the safer it becomes."
