The world’s most valuable company unveiled its Alpamayo system for autonomous vehicles this week at the big CES technology show in Las Vegas.

Autoliv and Tensor have jointly developed what they call the world’s first foldable steering wheel designed for a production-ready autonomous vehicle. The system will debut in the Tensor Robocar, a Level 4-capable personal autonomous vehicle expected to be ready for volume production in the second half of 2026.

From helping drivers with disabilities to making cities more efficient, there are many ways experts say the technology will transform transportation.

Mercedes-Benz said on Monday it will launch a new advanced driver-assistance system in the United States later this year that lets its vehicles operate autonomously on city streets under driver supervision.

Nvidia has unveiled a new self-driving car platform, teaming up with Mercedes-Benz on a driverless vehicle set to launch in the US very soon.

The company said the new group has been created amid demand to strengthen both commercial and technical collaboration with autonomous driving customers.

Recent service disruptions involving Waymo autonomous vehicles in San Francisco have drawn attention to a core challenge in autonomous mobility: dependence on a single network or network access technology.

At the CES conference, Jensen Huang, the company’s chief executive, said the more efficient and powerful chip would begin shipping later this year.

In an unprecedented move, NVIDIA has unveiled a cutting-edge lineup of next-generation robots, promising to transform industries across the globe.
