GM’s Shift in Autonomous Driving Strategy Leaves Cruise Employees in Limbo
- In the next 6 months, we expect GM to begin integrating Cruise’s technology into its own operations, potentially leading to a reduction in Cruise’s workforce. This integration may also result in a delay or cancellation of Cruise’s planned robotaxi launch in Houston in 2025.
- Within the next year, we anticipate GM to make significant progress in developing its own autonomous driving technology, potentially leading to the launch of a fully autonomous personal vehicle. However, this may come at the cost of Cruise’s robotaxi program, which may be shelved or significantly scaled back.
- In the next 5 years, we foresee GM becoming a major player in the autonomous driving market, with its technology being integrated into various vehicles and services. However, this may come at the expense of other autonomous driving startups, which may struggle to compete with GM’s resources and expertise.
- Looking ahead to the next 10 years, we predict that autonomous driving will become increasingly widespread, with GM and other companies playing a significant role in shaping the industry. However, this may also lead to increased competition and potential disruptions in the market, as new players and technologies emerge.
