优步将在几周内启动世界首支自动驾驶出租车车队的测试,这使其在把自动驾驶车辆服务带给消费者的竞赛中走在谷歌和福特的前面。这支新车队是优步和沃尔沃的合作的一部分,两家公司将共同投资3亿美元开发一款新的自动驾驶汽车。匹兹堡的优步客户很快就能通过自己的智能手机,叫到这些首批自动驾驶测试车辆,车型将是沃尔沃XC90。在试行阶段,司机依然会坐在驾驶座,试行期间服务对乘客将是免费的。
Uber will launch testing of the world’s first self-driving taxi fleet in a matter of weeks, putting it in front of Google and Ford in a race to bring autonomous car services to consumers. The new fleet is part of Uber’s partnership with Volvo, which will jointly invest 300 million U.S. dollars to develop a new self-driving car. Uber customers in Pittsburgh will soon be able to call these first self-driving test vehicles via their smartphones, which will be the Volvo XC90. During the pilot phase, the driver will still be sitting in the driver’s seat and the service will be free for passengers during the trial period.
