GM will instead use a conventional next-generation Bolt EV as the platform for its Cruise robotaxi, a move that will not require permission of U.S. regulators.
General Motors’ Cruise self-driving unit will focus its development efforts on a next-generation Chevrolet Bolt as it indefinitely delays its planned Origin vehicle that would not have a steering wheel, the automaker said on Tuesday.
