Industry News GM Bets Big on EV, AV Tech

General Motors said last week they expect to double revenue by 2030 thanks largely to implementation of electric vehicle technology and offering autonomous driving services on a subscription basis. The company expects offerings like its hands-free driving service to offer higher profit margins than selling cars.

Long Beach Partners with Mercedes The City of Long Beach, Calif., announced a partnership with Mercedes-Benz and an artificial intelligence company to test futuristic transportation management systems in the city. Intersection control systems, mobility data-collecting sensors, and test fleets of connected vehicles will come together in a Smart City project to prepare for AVs.
