Autonomous driving in Wolfsburg:
Gen.Urban now in use
Lord Mayor Dennis Weilmann emphasizes: "Wolfsburg is a perfect real-life laboratory for carrying out tests such as those with the Gen.Urban in road traffic. The future of urban private transport, the mobility concepts required for this and the close cooperation with Volkswagen are essential for the city of Wolfsburg. The topic of autonomous driving and the collection of data naturally plays an important role here, not least for us as a Smart City model project. I am therefore very pleased that the test drives are taking place in Wolfsburg."
As part of the Digital Mobility Wolfsburg test field, a wide variety of digital mobility projects are being brought together to create a comprehensive urban test field for connected and automated driving. These projects will allow citizens to experience first-hand how the future of mobility is being shaped - safely, efficiently and sustainably. As the home of the Volkswagen Group, Wolfsburg offers ideal conditions for this and sets high standards for future technologies in the mobility sector.
Dr. Nikolai Ardey, Head of Volkswagen Group Innovation, praises the good cooperation with the city of Wolfsburg and emphasizes the optimal framework conditions for current and future mobility projects that we offer as Volkswagen's home city.
