Driving Like Yourself: A Benchmark for Closed-Loop Personalized End-to-End Autonomous Driving

End-to-end autonomous driving has witnessed rapid progress, yet existing benchmarks are increasingly saturated, with state-of-the-art models achieving near-perfect scores on widely used open-loop and closed-loop benchmarks. This saturation does not mean that the problem has been solved; instead, it reveals that current benchmarks remain limited in scenario diversity, object variety, and the breadth of driving capabilities they evaluate. In particular, they lack sufficient long-tail scenarios involving rare but safety-critical objects and fail to assess advanced decision-making such as legal compliance, ethical reasoning, and emergency response. To address these gaps, we propose HiDrive, a new closed-loop benchmark for end-to-end autonomous driving that emphasizes long-tail scenarios and a richer evaluation of driving capabilities. HiDrive introduces a diverse set of rare objects and uncommon traffic situations, and expands evaluation from basic driving skills to more advanced capabilities, including rule compliance, moral reasoning, and context-dependent emergency maneuvers. Correspondingly, we extend previous collision-avoidance-centered metrics into a comprehensive evaluation system that encompasses collision and braking, traffic-rule compliance, and moral-reasoning indicators. Built on a more advanced physics engine, HiDrive provides physically realistic lighting and high-fidelity visual rendering, offering a more challenging and realistic testbed for assessing whether autonomous driving systems can handle the complexity of real-world deployment. The HiDrive software, source code, digital assets, and documentation are available at https://github.com/VDIGPKU/HiDrive.

End-to-end autonomous driving has increasingly adopted world model-based reinforcement learning frameworks to improve learning efficiency through \textit{imagined rollouts}. However, existing world models suffer from three key limitations: temporal inconsistency in long-horizon imagined rollouts, inadequate modeling of ego-environment interactions, and limited adaptability to diverse driving styles. To address these challenges, we propose \textit{StyleDrive}, a world-model-based learning framework that jointly enforces long-horizon consistency, explicitly disentangles interactive traffic states, and supports multi-style policy optimization within a unified learning paradigm. First, we introduce a temporal consistency regularization that integrates historical latent states through gated cross-attention, stabilizing long-horizon imagined rollouts and mitigating error accumulation. Second, we design an explicit state disentanglement module that separates ego-relevant from ego-irrelevant interactive states, enabling more interpretable and efficient decision-making in complex traffic scenarios. Third, we enable multi-style driving behaviors through Group Relative Policy Optimization, which replaces per-step reward optimization with trajectory-wise relative advantages, reducing reward variance and supporting diverse driving styles without retraining. We evaluate StyleDrive on the Bench2Drive closed-loop driving benchmark, achieving a driving score of 88.44 (+17.08 over the previous best world model-based method) and a success rate of 66.82 (+16.58). Furthermore, we deploy StyleDrive on a real automated guided vehicle platform and demonstrate promising sim-to-real transfer capability in dynamic driving scenarios.

Autonomous driving has shifted from modular perception-prediction-planning stacks toward end-to-end (E2E) models that map sensor inputs directly to vehicle control, often regularized by auxiliary tasks such as 3D detection, motion forecasting, and HD-map perception. Progress is driven by a fast-growing ecosystem of sensor-rich driving datasets, yet each ships its own file formats, APIs, coordinate conventions, and modality coverage, leaving cross-dataset experimentation and even basic per-dataset preprocessing to be re-implemented per project. We present StandardE2E, a framework that provides a single unified interface over E2E driving datasets. StandardE2E (i) standardizes per-dataset preprocessing under one shared data schema; (ii) combines multiple datasets in a single PyTorch DataLoader for cross-dataset pretraining, auxiliary-task supervision, and scenario-level filtering; and (iii) reduces adding a new dataset to a single per-dataset mapping from raw frames to the canonical schema, leaving the entire downstream pipeline unchanged. The framework supports six datasets out of the box: Waymo End-to-End, Waymo Perception, Argoverse 2 Sensor, Argoverse 2 LiDAR, NAVSIM (OpenScene-v1.1), and WayveScenes101, and is released as the open-source standard-e2e Python package, available at https://github.com/stepankonev/StandardE2E.
