Stellantis says that its new driving technology is not entirely ready for prime hours, but it will ultimately allow drivers to read a book or watch videos while driving

- Stellantis has just revealed Autodrive, a level 3 system that allows drivers to do other tasks.
- Drivers would not need to look at the road or keep their hands on the steering wheel.
- Technology is not yet available, even if it would be ready to be launched.
Stla Autodrive is about to ensure that hands -free driving and eyes towards a Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Peugeot, Fiat and all the other brands under the umbrella of Stelllantis – events. This is the promise of the new autonomous level 3 driving technology of Stellantis. Although the car manufacturer says the system is fully developed, it is launching for reasons that seem a bit unusual.

The level 3 semi-autonomous driving level is at least one step back compared to what the vast majority of cars offer today. Currently, level 2 systems, found in brand vehicles such as Tesla, Ford and Hyundai, can manage the center of the track, speed adjustment and even allow brief periods of hands -free driving. However, these systems always require the driver to keep his eyes on the road at any time. Level 3 systems, on the other hand, do not.
The freedom (and the capture) of level 3 autonomy
Instead, they allow the driver to do other tasks not linked to training as long as they are ready to take over if the system requests it, for example, you could watch a film or read a book. “Helping drivers to get the most out of their time is a priority,” said Ned Curic, in chief of Stellantis in engineering and technology manager. “By manipulating routine driving tasks, Stla Autodrive will improve the driving experience, which makes time while driving more efficient and more pleasant.”
Interestingly, Stellantis made this announcement while simultaneously deciding not to publish the technology yet. “Technology is fully developed and ready for deployment,” said company spokesman Dan Reid The penis.
“However, the current level 3 autonomous driving market is very limited. We have made the strategic decision not to launch it for the moment. Once the market opens and becomes more receptive, we will move forward with the introduction of this advanced technology, ”said Reid.
In other words, Stellantis is delighted to announce the technology, but not quite ready to let someone use it. Meanwhile, competitors like Mercedes already offer level 3 capacities on a limited scale in certain regions.
There is at least a really interesting treat from the video we have to mention. The automaker says that future updates could allow Autodrive to operate in all-terrain. Without a doubt, one of the strengths of off -road driving is the real experience of driving you. Nevertheless, it seems that Stellantis has very major projects if he wants to allow Autodrive in such rock situations.
