Manage episode 444138872 series 2982710
David Welch, Detroit Bureau Chief, Bloomberg joined Grayson Brulte on TheRoad to Autonomy podcast to discuss Ford's BlueCruise price cut and GM's burgeoning competition with Tesla for personally owned autonomous vehicles.
Ford continues to face headwinds without an autonomous driving partner as GM prepares to once again commercialize Cruise and Tesla prepares to introduce the robotaxi on 10/10. Without a partner and Waymo currently open to doing deals with several OEMs, could Ford once again strike a partnership this time not with Google but with Waymo?
There are a lot of questions to be answered as the market for personally-owned autonomous vehicles begins to emerge. When the market is fully emerge, one of the biggest questions that remains is which company will secure the coveted Costco partnership?
