Abstract

Instruction-conditioned trajectory prediction is an emerging problem in autonomous driving, where a model predicts the future ego trajectory not only from visual scene context and historical motion, but also from a natural-language maneuver instruction. This paper presents our submission to the doScenes Instructed Driving Challenge, built upon OmniDrive, a vision-language-action driving agent with 3D perception, reasoning, and planning capabilities. We adapt OmniDrive to the doScenes setting by training it on instruction-annotated nuScenes scenes and generating a 6-second ego trajectory represented by 12 future waypoints. To improve multi-view visual grounding, we further introduce a DVPE-style divided-view perception module into the OmniDrive perception head. Instead of attending globally to all camera features, the proposed module groups query features and image tokens into divided local view spaces and performs visibility-aware cross-attention within each view. This design reduces irrelevant cross-view interference and helps the model better align language instructions with local driving-relevant visual evidence.

Teaching Vision-Language-Action Models What to See and Where to Look

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have emerged as a promising paradigm for end-to-end autonomous driving. However, existing VLAs' training relies heavily on text-centric visual question answering and chain-of-thought reasoning data, which emphasizes linguistic reasoning rather than action-grounded planning. As a result, the learned representations capture semantic knowledge but lack spatial dependencies crucial for reliable trajectory prediction. We propose DriveTeach-VLA, a framework that explicitly teaches VLAs what to see and where to look. Driving-aware Vision Distillation (DVD) injects driving-specific perceptual priors into the vision encoder, while 2D Trajectory-Guided Prompts (2D-TGP) provide spatial conditioning aligned with feasible driving trajectories. Together, they form a vision-guided learning pipeline: what to see (DVD pretraining) - where to look (TGP-guided SFT) - how to act (TGP-guided GRPO). DriveTeach-VLA achieves the state-of-the-art performance on NAVSIM and nuScenes. Our code is available at: https://github.com/ShivaTeam/DriveTeach-VLA.

Qwen-Drive-1.0: An Initial Step towards a Vision-Language Foundation Model for Autonomous Driving

We present Qwen-Drive-1.0, an initial step towards a vision-language foundation model for autonomous driving. Qwen-Drive-1.0 retains the architecture of the pretrained vision-language model (VLM) and integrates 3D perception, visual question answering, and motion planning within a unified framework. An external bird's-eye-view (BEV) perception head jointly performs 3D object detection, semantic occupancy prediction, and BEV map segmentation. It serves as a probe of the 3D information accessible from the shared representations and provides an explicit, inspectable interface to 3D scene structure. A Planning Expert conditions on shared VLM representations to generate future ego trajectories. A staged training recipe combines driving supervision with general-purpose vision-language data to acquire driving-specific competence while helping preserve broad visual understanding and instruction-following capabilities. Experiments demonstrate strong 3D perception and driving scene understanding while largely preserving general vision-language capability. Comprehensive evaluations across open-loop, pseudo-closed-loop, and closed-loop settings further show highly competitive motion-planning performance.

LVDrive: Latent Visual Representation Enhanced Vision-Language-Action Autonomous Driving Model

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have emerged as a promising framework for end-to-end autonomous driving. However, existing VLAs typically rely on sparse action supervision, which underutilizes their powerful scene understanding and reasoning capabilities. Recent attempts to incorporate dense visual supervision via world modeling often overemphasize pixel-level image reconstruction, neglecting semantically meaningful scene representation learning. In this work, we propose LVDrive, a Latent Visual representation enhanced VLA framework for autonomous driving. LVDrive introduces a future scene prediction task into the VLA paradigm, where future representations are learned entirely in a high-level latent space under auxiliary supervision from a pretrained vision backbone. Departing from inefficient autoregressive generation, we jointly model future scene and motion prediction within a unified embedding space, processed in a single forward pass to conduct the future-aware reasoning. We further design a two-stage trajectory decoding strategy that explicitly leverages the learned latent future representations to refine trajectory generation. Extensive experiments on the challenging Bench2Drive benchmark demonstrate that LVDrive achieves significant improvements in closed-loop driving performance, outperforming both action supervised methods and image-reconstruction-based world model approaches.
