Part 2/8:
Volkswagen's ID bus, designed for the robo taxi landscape, is a highly ambitious project. The full self-driving software for this model is a collaborative effort with Mobileye, a company known for its cutting-edge autonomous driving technology. This partnership brings advanced hardware to the ID bus, which includes 13 cameras, nine LAR sensors, and five radar units. While this technology is undoubtedly sophisticated, its expense is a critical factor. The cost of the ID bus alone purportedly stands at three to four times more than that of Tesla's Cybertruck.
