Future bus

, July 25, 2016

The Mercedes-Benz Future Bus with CityPilot drives at speeds up to 70 km per hour, halts to the nearest centimetre at bus stops, drives off again automatically, brakes for obstacles or pedestrians and communicates with traffic signals.

Daimler Buses, the world’s biggest bus manufacturer, recently unveiled its autonomously driving city bus of the future, which drove for the first time on a route of about 20 km in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

The driver is on board and monitors the system, but with a much easier task than before. Daimler Buses is the world’s first manufacturer to put a city bus into automated operation in a real-life traffic situation.
