End-to-end autonomous driving (E2E-AD) has emerged as a promising paradigm that unifies perception, prediction, and planning into a holistic, data-driven framework. However, achieving robustness to varying camera viewpoints, a common real-world challenge due to diverse vehicle configurations, remains an open problem. In this work, we propose VR-Drive, a novel E2E-AD framework that addresses viewpoint generalization by jointly learning 3D scene reconstruction as an auxiliary task to enable planning-aware view synthesis. Unlike prior scene-specific synthesis approaches, VR-Drive adopts a feed-forward inference strategy that supports online training-time augmentation from sparse views without additional annotations. To further improve viewpoint consistency, we introduce a viewpoint-mixed memory bank that facilitates temporal interaction across multiple viewpoints and a viewpoint-consistent distillation strategy that transfers knowledge from original to synthesized views. Trained in a fully end-to-end manner, VR-Drive effectively mitigates synthesis-induced noise and improves planning under viewpoint shifts. In addition, we release a new benchmark dataset to evaluate E2E-AD performance under novel camera viewpoints, enabling comprehensive analysis. Our results demonstrate that VR-Drive is a scalable and robust solution for the real-world deployment of end-to-end autonomous driving systems.

End-to-end autonomous driving (E2E-AD) in urban environments requires robust decision-making under partial observability and complex multi-agent interactions. Severe occlusions and dense traffic at intersections limit the perception capability of single-agent systems, motivating recent efforts on Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) cooperation for perception and planning. However, existing evaluation protocols face a fundamental trade-off: open-loop evaluation fails to capture error accumulation and recovery from deviations, while closed-loop evaluation is costly, difficult to scale, and often relies on simulated environments that may suffer from domain gaps. To bridge this gap, we propose VIPS, a benchmark for cooperative autonomous driving in V2I settings based on pseudo-simulation. VIPS extends pseudo-simulation to multi-agent scenarios by integrating vehicle and infrastructure observations and introducing interaction-aware perturbations that approximate realistic traffic dynamics. This enables scalable yet realistic evaluation of robustness and error propagation without full simulation. We further present CoS-V2X, a cooperative planning framework based on sparse representations. CoS-V2X models vehicle-infrastructure interactions using compact features for efficient communication and robust decision-making under heterogeneous observations.

End-to-end autonomous driving (E2E-AD) has emerged as a compelling alternative to traditional modular pipelines. While recent approaches achieve strong performance on single-domain datasets, their performance degrades significantly when trained jointly across multiple heterogeneous domains. We propose HEAT, a trajectory-driven learning paradigm that organizes training around planning trajectories, enabling the model to capture domain-invariant representations of driving intent.
