Mobileye said on Monday it has signed a deal with a major U.S. automaker to supply its next-generation EyeQ6H chip, expanding its production outlook as advanced driver-assistance technology is deployed as standard equipment across a wide range of vehicles.
The agreement, which involves an unnamed top-10 U.S. automaker, will see Mobileye’s Surround ADAS technology rolled out across both mass-market and premium models.

Mobileye said the deal increases its projected future deliveries to more than 19 million EyeQ6H-based Surround ADAS systems. That figure includes roughly 9 million units linked to the newly announced automaker as well as existing programs, including agreements with Volkswagen Group disclosed earlier this year.
“This selection of Mobileye Surround ADAS by one of the world’s great automakers reflects the power of our approach to democratizing safety and technology,” said Amnon Shashua, Mobileye’s president and chief executive. “Leveraging the EyeQ6H as a powerful central processor for ADAS enables better performance, increased features and greater flexibility to automakers and their customers, all at a lower cost.”
The company has increasingly positioned advanced driver-assistance systems as a near-term growth engine, as the broader commercial rollout of fully autonomous vehicles has progressed more slowly than initially expected. Competition among automakers in the United States and Europe has accelerated the adoption of hands-free, eyes-on highway driving systems, pushing suppliers to offer scalable and cost-efficient solutions.

Surround ADAS is designed to consolidate multiple safety and driving functions onto a single chip and electronic control unit, allowing automakers to reduce system complexity and costs. The platform supports features such as hands-free highway driving on selected roads, automated lane changes, traffic-jam assistance and protection against cut-ins at highway speeds.
Mobileye said the system integrates data from multiple cameras, radar sensors and crowdsourced road-mapping technology, and supports over-the-air software updates, enabling automakers to enhance functionality over time without hardware changes.
