- General Motors-controlled Cruise is delaying the rollout of a commercial self-driving taxi service that it previously said would start in 2019.
- The autonomous tech firm has mainly been testing vehicles on public streets in San Francisco, where it also shuttles employees in Chevrolet Bolt electric cars outfitted with cameras, Lidar and radar systems that are manufactured under the Cruise brand name.
- Cruise is in a race against several self-driving efforts, including Ford and VW-run Argo AI’s ride-hailing and delivery service scheduled for 2021, and Waymo.
