GM and Lyft plan to begin putting self-driving cabs to the test sometime within the next year. According to The Wall Street Journal, the companies intend to put Chevrolet Bolts on the road in a yet-to-be-named city, where they'll actually be picking up Lyft passengers.
The plan relies on GM's recent acquisition of Cruise Automation, a three-year-old autonomous car startup it purchased in March. "We will want to vet the autonomous tech between Cruise, GM, and ourselves and slowly introduce this into markets," Lyft product director Taggart Matthiesen tells the Journal.
