Honda aims to have autonomous cars one step below fully self-driving tech available by 2025.
Speaking at a media briefing in Japan, Honda president & CEO Takahiro Hachigo announced the plans, which build on its existing target for Honda and Acura vehicles to have highly-automated freeway driving capability (SAE Level 3) by 2020.
“We will strive to achieve the technological establishment of Level 4 automated driving for personal car use by around 2025,” said Hachigo. “We are striving to provide our customers with a sense of confidence and trust by offering automated driving that will keep vehicles away from any dangerous situation and that will not make people around the vehicle feel unsafe.”
