First Self-Driving Cars Debut in Singapore

U.S. News

In its test service, nuTonomy allows Singapore residents to use the developer's ride-hailing smartphone app to reserve free rides in a Renault Zoe or Mitsubishi i-MiEV electric vehicle that has been configured for autonomous driving. An engineer sits behind the steering wheel to monitor the system and take control if necessary. In a telephone interview, Iagnemma says the benefit of the live-testing in Singapore is to collect data on what customers think of the cars. "I would like to continue testing as long as we get useful data."
