Nissan demonstrates Autonomous drive on public roads for mobility services and progress with Autonomous Drive
YOKOHAMA, Japan — Nissan has commenced demonstrations of a prototype vehicle equipped with its in-house-developed, autonomous drive technologies — showcasing progress in its goal towards rolling out autonomous mobility services within fiscal year 2027.
As a result, recognition performance, behavioral prediction, and judgment functions, as well as control functions have been enhanced, delivering smooth operation in a variety of complex scenarios. Around the busy streets of Yokohama, close to Nissan’s global headquarters in Japan, the LEAF prototype is able to smoothly demonstrate its ability to predict the behavior of pedestrians, conduct lane changes when merging, and judge when to safely enter intersections.
In the fourth quarter of this fiscal year, Nissan aims to begin trials in the Minato Mirai area, and plans to progress to service demonstration tests within fiscal year 2025. During the trials, the level of autonomous driving functionality will be gradually increased while assessing customer acceptance, with the aim to provide driverless services.
