Stellantis Reveals Level 3 Autonomous Driving Technology

The STLA AutoDrive system offers hands-free, eyes-off driving at low speeds but faces market and regulatory hurdles before launch.

  • STLA AutoDrive is Stellantis' first in-house Level 3 autonomous driving system, enabling hands-free and eyes-off operation in specific conditions.
  • The system is designed for speeds up to 37 mph (60 km/h) in stop-and-go traffic, with future updates potentially increasing functionality to 59 mph (95 km/h).
  • STLA AutoDrive uses advanced sensors, including self-cleaning cameras and radar, to manage speed, steering, and braking while maintaining safety.
  • The technology will be scalable across Stellantis brands like Jeep, Dodge, and Ram, but the company has not announced specific vehicle models or a launch timeline.
  • Stellantis cited limited market demand and regulatory challenges as reasons for delaying the deployment of the system, despite it being fully developed.
