On January 28, 2026, BYD officially released the "SkyEye 5.0" advanced driver-assistance system, marking a new era of "AI self-evolution" in BYD's intelligent driving technology. This is not a simple functional upgrade, but a revolutionary leap from "tool assistance" to "intelligent partner."
The God's Eye 5.0 redefines user perception of intelligent driving with its "three ultra" concept:
1.1 Ultra-Safe
Demonstrates "experienced driver" level reaction capabilities in extreme scenarios
At 130 km/h during the day, Automatic Emergency Steering (AES) accurately avoids stationary vehicles ahead.
At 135 km/h in tunnels, the AEB system can completely stop in front of stationary vehicles.
When a child suddenly crosses in a blind spot during a turn, the system triggers emergency braking within 0.1 seconds.
1.2 Ultra-Human-like
Driving behavior is as natural and smooth as a human driver.
Changing lanes to bypass parked vehicles is decisive and seamless, without abruptness.
Actively yields to oncoming traffic on narrow roads, cooperating smoothly like an experienced driver.
Achieves "three-point turns on narrow roads"—a "forbidden zone" for traditional intelligent driving systems, now easily accomplished.
1.3 Ultra-Efficient
Overtakes slow-moving two-wheeled vehicles on narrow roads with precise timing, without cutting in.
Automatically identifies and smoothly navigates around construction zones.
Navigates urban narrow alleys effortlessly, without manual intervention.
The God's Eye 5.0 completely eliminates reliance on high-definition maps, building "all-scenario mapless intelligent driving" capabilities:
Perception Architecture:
Uses a globally unique "front-view triple-camera vision system"
Dual wide-angle + single telephoto 8-megapixel cameras, covering a 120° field of view and 200-meter long-range recognition
Equipped with 5 millimeter-wave radars and 12 ultrasonic radars, creating a 360° blind-spot-free perception network
No lidar required, resulting in lower costs and suitability for vehicles in the 70,000 RMB price range, such as the Seagull.
Decision-Making Core:
Fully closed-loop end-to-end large model + reinforcement learning
The system no longer "processes in steps" perception → planning → control, but is unified by a single AI brain.
Processes 160 million kilometers of real road data daily, equivalent to circling the Earth 4000 times.
Through reinforcement learning, the system can independently optimize itself from every "minor mistake," becoming smarter with use.
Computing Platform:
BYD self-developed chip + Orin X Collaborative Architecture
Supports millisecond-level response times, stopping 0.3 seconds faster than humans when encountering sudden obstacles.
Dynamic computing power allocation: full-speed operation during urban congestion, intelligent energy saving during highway cruising.
Endorsed by 2.56 million car owners, with an activation rate as high as 94.13%, the God's Eye 5.0 is not a "technology show for a select few," but a truly inclusive transportation revolution:

An average of 25,500 successful risk avoidances per day. |
BYD is the first to promise: full responsibility for parking assistance scenarios – not limited to the first owner, unlimited compensation, no need to go through insurance, truly giving users "worry-free parking."
Since 2025, BYD has implemented multiple rounds of OTA upgrades, making intelligent driving "always new and improved":
July: Enhanced active safety, added full-scenario detours and multi-point U-turns
August: Optimized cockpit experience, launched lane-level navigation and karaoke without a microphone
October: Introduced dynamic themes and omnidirectional parking recorder
December: Pushed the new UI for God's Eye B, added low-speed emergency braking (MEB)
In January 2026, God's Eye 5.0 was officially pushed to all models, covering all brands: Dynasty, Ocean, Denza, Fangchengbao, and Yangwang.
While the industry is still debating "whether lidar is necessary" and "whether high-precision maps are essential," BYD has proven with God's Eye 5.0 that: true intelligent driving doesn't rely on simply piling on hardware, but on the deep evolution of data and algorithms.
It allows the 70,000 RMB Seagull to have the same urban NOA capabilities as a 300,000 RMB luxury car;
It allows every ordinary family to enjoy transportation protection that is "more stable than an experienced driver";
It makes "intelligent driving for everyone" no longer just a slogan, but a real experience happening every day on the streets of Beijing, Guangzhou, and Chongqing.
Choosing God's Eye 5.0 is not choosing a technology, but choosing a visible peace of mind.
