Automated on-demand ride-hailing service by Daimler and Bosch
Daimler and Bosch announced to pilot an automated on-demand ride-hailing service in San Jose, California, as from the second half of 2019. The service will be run on highly and fully automated Mercedes-Benz S-Class vehicles, Autonomous Level 4/5.
The pilot will be offered to a selected user community in the San Carlos/ Stevens Creek Corridor between downtown and west San José. The service could provide a handy solution for the transportation challenges of the already third biggest city in California which is expected to grow 40% in the next two decades. For Bosch and Daimler it's a good opportunity to learn about automated vehicle mobility services in practice.
