Imagine sitting in your car, sipping coffee, checking emails, or watching a short movie while your vehicle smoothly navigates traffic. Sounds like the future? Well, it's here! Stellantis has just launched STLA AutoDrive 1.0, an advanced self-driving system designed to make driving easier, safer, and more relaxing.
What is STLA AutoDrive?
STLA AutoDrive is Stellantis’ first in-house-developed autonomous driving system, offering different levels of automation to enhance your driving experience:
Level 3 Hands-Free, Eyes-Off Mode – At speeds up to 60 km/h (37 mph), you can let the car take control in traffic, even at night or in bad weather.
Future-Proof Tech – Updates may extend the system’s capability to 95 km/h (59 mph) and even off-road driving.
Level 2 & 2+ Assistance – Adaptive Cruise Control and lane centering help keep driving smooth and stress-free.
How Does It Work?
When traffic conditions allow, STLA AutoDrive notifies you that autonomous mode is available. With the press of a button, the system takes over, managing speed, braking, and steering. A cutting-edge sensor suite ensures high precision and safety at all times.
And no need to worry about visibility—STLA AutoDrive features an automated cleaning system to keep its sensors clear for optimal performance.
Why You’ll Love It
This isn’t just about cool tech—it’s about making your life easier. STLA AutoDrive helps you reclaim time lost in traffic. While your car handles the road, you can:
Catch up on emails
Watch a quick video
Read a book
Simply relax and enjoy the ride
According to Ned Curic, Stellantis’ Chief Engineering and Technology Officer, the goal is to make driving more efficient and enjoyable.
What’s Next?
STLA AutoDrive is built on a scalable, cloud-connected platform, ensuring seamless updates and improvements. Future enhancements could include:
Hands-Free, Eyes-Off driving at speeds up to 95 km/h (59 mph)
Advanced off-road driving features
Safety First!
Although STLA AutoDrive offers impressive automation, drivers must stay seated, buckled up, and ready to take over when needed. The system follows regional laws to ensure a safe and responsible driving experience.
