Toyota and NVIDIA are going to partner to create their next-generation autonomous vehicles.
Resolved true The record shows it happened or was so.
Factual: Statements about the present or the past, checked against the record: did they hold up?
Said for an organisation they lead or work for; it counts on both records.
What would count as true or false
Judged as of 2025-01-07. TRUE: NVIDIA or Toyota officially announced at or around CES 2025 that Toyota will build its next-generation vehicles with automated driving or ADAS on NVIDIA DRIVE AGX hardware/OS. MOSTLY TRUE: the partnership was announced, but its scope is narrower than 'autonomous vehicles' (for example ADAS rather than full autonomy), which is a minor wording difference. MOSTLY FALSE: the only agreement covers something unrelated to vehicles, such as data-centre or AI training work. FALSE: no such Toyota–NVIDIA agreement was announced.
Set before the research began.

E3 CES 2025: AI Advancing at ‘Incredible Pace,’ NVIDIA CEO Says NVIDIA Blog · 7 January 2025 Own record
“NVIDIA is partnering with Toyota for safe next-gen vehicle development using the NVIDIA DRIVE AGX in-vehicle computer running NVIDIA DriveOS.”
Reasoning
NVIDIA's CES 2025 press release (E1) states that Toyota will build its next-generation vehicles on NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin running DriveOS, offering advanced driving assistance capabilities, and NVIDIA's blog (E3) says NVIDIA is partnering with Toyota on next-generation vehicle development using DRIVE AGX running DriveOS. An independent trade publication (E2) confirms Huang announced at CES that Toyota's upcoming models will have automated driving capabilities powered by DRIVE AGX Orin and DriveOS. This satisfies the TRUE criterion, which covers automated driving or ADAS on NVIDIA DRIVE AGX hardware/OS, though the official wording describes ADAS rather than full autonomy.
