About Motional

Motional is at the forefront of autonomous vehicle technology, crafting the future of transportation. Born from a joint venture between automotive technology expert Aptiv and vehicle manufacturing leader Hyundai Motor Group, Motional is uniquely positioned to fundamentally change how the world moves. The company is commercializing SAE Level 4 autonomous vehicles for robotaxi and delivery services, aiming to provide safer roadways and more equitable transportation options. Motional's technology focuses on developing driverless systems that are safe, reliable, and accessible for everyone. Their IONIQ 5 robotaxi, an all-electric SAE Level 4 AV, can safely operate without a human driver.

Engineering at Motional

Motional engineers are solving some of the biggest challenges in autonomous driving, moving towards a future of fully driverless systems. They are developing an AI-first autonomy stack, leveraging machine learning and large foundation models to process massive amounts of data from their robotaxi fleet. This involves tackling complex problems in perception, prediction, and planning. Motional's Continuous Learning Framework uses cloud-based infrastructure and machine learning to continuously improve the performance and safety of their autonomous vehicles. This framework mines for model errors, anomalies, and rare driving scenarios across millions of driving hours to build high-quality datasets. The company is actively shifting from a traditional modular architecture to an end-to-end (E2E) autonomous driving system based on machine learning, with a focus on generalization, cost optimization, and scalability. This advanced approach involves processing petabytes of multimodal sensor data and ensuring robust, scalable data pipelines.

  • Develop an AI-first autonomy stack using machine learning and large foundation models.
