Volvo Cars will be introducing its unsupervised autonomous driving feature, Ride Pilot, to customers in California, U.S.A.
By building on an industry-leading safety standard that will feature in Volvo Cars' next generation of pure electric cars, Ride Pilot aims to free up more time for customers and make driving a Volvo even more convenient and enjoyable.
The sensor set-up that enables Ride Pilot consists of more than two dozen sensors, including Luminar's cutting-edge Iris LiDAR sensor Once it has been verified as safe for use on highways, Ride Pilot is planned to be available as an add-on subscription on the company's forthcoming fully electric SUV. This new flagship car for the company will be revealed later in 2022.
The technology makes use of the array of sensors already standard in a forthcoming fully electric SUV. Ride Pilot will be made available to customers only once it has gone through Volvo Cars' rigorous verification and testing protocol. This includes validation of the technology as safe for use on highways in a number of varying conditions.
As part of this verification process, Volvo Cars is already testing autonomous driving functionalities on roads in Sweden together with autonomous driving software company Zenseact, and collecting data across Europe and the U.S.A. By the middle of this year, the company intends to begin testing on roads in California, where the climate, traffic conditions and regulatory framework provide a favourable environment for the introduction of autonomous driving.
