构建端到端自动驾驶评估基准，揭示视觉语言模型在感知到决策链中的失效模式。

Autonomous driving requires reliable perception and safe decision-making in complex scenarios. Recent vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate reasoning and generalization abilities, opening new possibilities for autonomous driving; however, existing benchmarks often evaluate perception and decision-making separately, limit failure analysis with choice-only formats, or introduce evaluation bias through LLM-scored long-form outputs. To address these issues, we present Drive-P2D, a progressive perception-to-decision benchmark with 6,650 questions across Object, Scene, and Decision levels. Drive-P2D adopts a separated reasoning-and-answer protocol: final answers are scored objectively, while reasoning is analyzed to identify error modes exposed along the progressive perception-to-decision chain. We evaluate mainstream VLMs across all and high-risk scenarios, and further characterize the perception-to-decision capability boundary through correlation analysis and similar-scene robustness testing. Reasoning further exposes failure modes such as logical reasoning errors and semantic feature omissions, and we train a lightweight analyzer model to automate large-scale error-mode annotation of reasoning. Together, these designs provide practical insights for building safer and more reliable VLMs for real-world autonomous driving.
