Automotive manufacturers are in a race to distinguish themselves in the fast-evolving landscape of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving technologies according to a report by S&P Global Mobility. As competition intensifies, automakers are adopting diverse strategies to integrate these features, from enhancing safety and convenience with ADAS to pushing the boundaries with […]
U.S. Commerce Department Proposes Rule to Secure Connected Vehicle Supply Chains from Foreign Adversary Threats
If adopted, the proposal would ban vehicles, telematics and automated driving technologies originating in China and Russia. The U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that would prohibit the sale or import of connected vehicles integrating specific pieces of hardware and software, or those components […]
Researchers Collaborate on Best Practices for Automated Vehicle Evaluation
Researchers from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) have joined colleagues from academia and the automated vehicle and insurance industries in issuing a set of best practices for future evaluations of highly automated vehicles. The recommendations, known as the Retrospective Automated Vehicle Evaluation (RAVE) checklist, emerged from a two-day working group meeting in January […]
Toyota Research Institute and Stanford Engineering Demonstrate Autonomous Tandem Drift Sequence
AI-powered research demonstrates two vehicles avoiding crashing in dynamic conditions. Toyota Research Institute (TRI) and Stanford Engineering announced a world first in driving research: autonomously drifting two cars in tandem. For nearly seven years, the teams have collaborated on research to make driving safer. The experiments automate a motorsports maneuver called “drifting,” where a driver […]
AAA Survey Says Fear of Self-Driving Cars Persists as Industry Faces an Uncertain Future
According to AAA’s latest survey on autonomous vehicles, most U.S. drivers either express fear (66%) or uncertainty (25%) about fully self-driving vehicles – a fear that has not decreased since spiking last year. However, interest in semi-autonomous technologies such as Reverse Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and Lane Keeping Assistance remains high. The results infer that […]
Nissan Announces Plan to Commercialize Autonomous-Drive Mobility Services in Japan by 2027
Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. yesterday announced its roadmap to commercialize its inhouse-developed, autonomous-drive mobility services in Japan. According to the company, this is a significant step towards its long-term vision, Nissan Ambition 2030, to empower mobility by solving transportation service issues faced by local communities in Japan. Local communities have been facing several mobility challenges, […]
Cruise, GM and Honda to Bring Driverless Ridehail Service to Japan
Cruise, alongside GM and Honda, has entered into a memorandum of understanding to establish a new joint venture (JV) to provide driverless ridehail service in Japan starting in early 2026. “There is an important and growing societal need for safe and accessible transportation in Japan that autonomous vehicles can provide a solution for,” said Cruise […]
Widespread Adoption of Autonomous Vehicle Remains at Least a Decade Away
S&P Global Mobility reports says the era of peak hype has passed, but forecasters still see long-term adoption in certain segments that benefit from today’s rise in automated driving technology. A world of self-driving vehicles and mobility-on-demand is likely to exist eventually, but for the next decade, widespread implementation of autonomous technology will not be […]
Survey Shows Consumers Desire Automated Safety over Self-Driving Technology
According to a spring 2023 S&P Global Mobility consumer survey, car buyers understand and want advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) features that provide safer driving – and they expect them to be standard in new luxury and mainstream vehicles. But the same feelings do not apply when ADAS is applied to autonomous driving systems. According […]
Mercedes-Benz Receives First California Certification for Production Vehicle SAE Level 3 Conditionally Automated Driving
Mercedes‑Benz announced that its DRIVE PILOT system for SAE Level 3 conditionally automated driving received certification from California state authorities. With this milestone Mercedes-Benz is the first car manufacturer with authorization to introduce such a SAE Level 3 system in a standard-production vehicle for use on public freeways in the most populous state in the […]
