MVAdapt: Zero-Shot Multi-Vehicle Adaptation for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

End-to-End (E2E) autonomous driving models are usually trained and evaluated with a fixed ego-vehicle, even though their driving policy is implicitly tied to vehicle dynamics. When such a model is deployed on a vehicle with different size, mass, or drivetrain characteristics, its performance can degrade substantially; we refer to this problem as the vehicle-domain gap. To address it, we propose MVAdapt, a physics-conditioned adaptation framework for multi-vehicle E2E driving. MVAdapt combines a frozen TransFuser++ scene encoder with a lightweight physics encoder and a cross-attention module that conditions scene features on vehicle properties before waypoint decoding. In the CARLA Leaderboard 1.0 benchmark, MVAdapt improves over naive transfer and multi-embodiment adaptation baselines on both in-distribution and unseen vehicles. We further show two complementary behaviors: strong zero-shot transfer on many unseen vehicles, and data-efficient few-shot calibration for severe physical outliers. These results suggest that explicitly conditioning E2E driving policies on vehicle physics is an effective step toward more transferable autonomous driving models.
