GM’s Cruise autonomous vehicle (AV) will begin testing in Japan soon.
The move is made possible by the fact that Honda agreed back in 2018 to pump $2 billion over the next 12 years in Cruise, the GM offshoot company tasked with making AVs. The announced plan at the time was to have whatever technology is developed launched into service as the backbone of some future mobility service, and perhaps even delivery business.
According to Honda, by the end of the year, the first AVs will be on Japanese roads for testing. No specifics were provided, other that these machines will support Honda’s upcoming autonomous vehicle mobility service (MaaS).
