BEIJING, April 26, 2026 – ThunderSoft (SZ: 300496), a global provider in AIOS products and technologies, today officially launched AquaDrive AIOS 2.1 at the "Super Fusion AI Agent & ThunderSoft 2026 Smart Vehicle Product Launch" on Auto China 2026.
As the industry's first true "AI as OS" native automotive operating system, AquaDrive AIOS 2.1 is built upon the revolutionary OpenClaw architecture and the AquaClaw AI Agent technical foundation. It represents a full-stack reconstruction of the automotive OS—from the kernel to the application layer—shifting the cockpit experience from "passive response" to "proactive holistic intelligence."
AquaClaw: The Bedrock of Automotive AI Agents
Unlike traditional architectures where AI is merely an add-on feature, AquaDrive AIOS 2.1 pioneers the AquaClaw foundation, achieving a total link AI-native reconstruction. This architecture empowers the cockpit with five core capabilities:
Local Execution: High-efficiency deployment and inference of Large Language Models (LLMs) on the edge, ensuring data security and ultra-low latency.
Long-term Memory: A personalized user knowledge graph that provides consistent service across different scenarios and timeframes.
Proactive Perception: Multi-modal fusion technology to accurately sense user states, vehicle conditions, and the surrounding environment.
Planning & Execution: Understanding user intent to automatically generate and execute complex, cross-application tasks.
Secure Invocation: A hierarchical permission and isolation mechanism to ensure safe and reliable vehicle control.
This transition marks a historic leap from "AI on OS" to "AI as OS," transforming the vehicle from a collection of functions into an autonomous "Super AI Agent."
Global Technological Breakthroughs in User Experience
AquaDrive AIOS 2.1 introduces several world-first technologies to refresh the in-cabin experience across three dimensions:
Integrated Real-World Space (5-in-1 Fusion): The system debuts a "Reality Space" that integrates MAP, SR (Surround Reality), AVM, APA, and AI. By merging parking, navigation, intelligent driving, blind-spot monitoring, and automated parking into a single panoramic view, it eliminates cluttered pop-up windows and reduces the driver’s cognitive load.
Full-Journey AI Companionship: Leveraging long-term memory and proactive reasoning, the AI Agent acts as an "Exclusive Navigator," providing seamless, intuitive assistance throughout the entire cycle of boarding, driving, and parking.
GenAI 3D Scene Generation: For the first time, AquaDrive AIOS 2.1 utilizes GenAI + 3D native generation to bridge the gap between physical and digital worlds, allowing users to customize their 3D digital cockpit space in real-time.
"The AI wave is profoundly reshaping the automotive industry and the user travel experience," said Hengsheng Chang, Executive President of ThunderSoft and President of the Intelligent Vehicle Business Group. "AquaDrive AIOS 2.1 is the core OS foundation born for the era of 'AI-Everywhere' in vehicles. By providing an open, stable, and rapidly iterable native stack, we empower OEMs to accelerate mass production and co-create a new era of AI-defined vehicles."
