The future of mobility.How autonomous driving will change our lives.

01

Who will sit up front...

02

1. Lane departure warningDriver only

2. Active lane keeping Assisted

3. Traffic jam pilotPartially automated

4. Highway driving assistant Highly automated

5. Highway pilotFully automated

Red stepDriver not required

6. Robot taxiAutonomous

We are already well on the way to autonomous driving.And the final developments will soon be in place.
