GM's production stoppage of the Cruise Origin comes days after Cruise announced a pause of all driverless operations nationwide.
General Motors' autonomous ridesharing operation Cruise hasn’t exactly had a great few weeks. The division has been under fire from the public and regulators in recent weeks, even having its permit to offer driverless for-pay rides suspended by the state of California due to overwhelming safety concerns.
Most Cruise vehicles serving up robotaxi rides on the road, however, are Chevy Bolt EVs; those were until recently operating in cities like San Francisco, Austin and Miami. Cruise planned to eventually utilize the Origin for both ride-hailing and deliveries under the company’s platform.
