BMW has joined forces with tech companies Intel and Mobileye to in effect bring fully autonomous cars to market by 2021. That"s only five years from now. Gulp.We"ve all heard of Intel, but few have Mobileye. It"s an Israeli company that provides active safety and autonomous tech to car companies. Tesla"s Autopilot uses Mobileye kit. All told, Mobileye"s hard and software is used by something like 20 car manufacturers.Those of you with particularly vivid memories will remember that 2021 is also the year BMW is set to launch the iNext, an all-electric saloon about the size of today"s 5-Series. This is not a coincidence the iNext will be "the foundation for BMW Group"s autonomous driving strategy". In so many words, it"s the first properly autonomous BMW.
