NVIDIA at CES 2026: Rubin Platform in Full Production, Open Alpamayo Models Target Self-Driving
拉斯维加斯—NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang opened CES 2026 with a talk at Fontainebleau in Las Vegas on January 5, announcing that the company's new Rubin computing platform is in full production. Rubin is NVIDIA's first extreme-codesigned platform built from six chips — the Rubin GPU, Vera CPU, NVLink 6 switch, Spectrum-X Ethernet Photonics, ConnectX-9 SuperNIC and BlueField-4 DPU — with the Rubin GPU delivering 50 petaflops of NVFP4 inference performance. NVIDIA says Rubin cuts the cost of generating each token to about one-tenth of the previous generation, with partner products arriving in the second half of 2026.
For self-driving, NVIDIA launched the open Alpamayo family of models: Alpamayo R1, the industry's first open reasoning vision-language-action (VLA) model, paired with AlpaSim, an open simulation blueprint for training and validating autonomous systems. The first production car built on Alpamayo is the all-new Mercedes-Benz CLA, which carries NVIDIA's AI-defined driving stack, reaches the U.S. market this year, and has just earned a five-star Euro NCAP safety rating.
NVIDIA also broadened its open-model push across six domains: Clara for healthcare, Earth-2 for climate, Nemotron for reasoning and multimodal models, Cosmos for robotics and simulation, GR00T for embodied intelligence and Alpamayo for autonomous driving. Other announcements included the Inference Context Memory Storage Platform, a DGX Spark performance boost to 2.6x, and DLSS 4.5 with 6X Multi Frame Generation. Huang also appeared with Siemens to expand their partnership on an industrial super-intelligence operating system.
