AutoExec Summary
A proposal to ban Chinese software in autonomous and connected cars is expected to be presented to the US Government due to security concerns. The ban would apply to vehicles with Level 3 automation and above, potentially affecting Chinese car makers testing autonomous vehicles on US roads. The US Commerce Department is set to recommend barring vehicles with driverless technology using Chinese-developed software. The ban would require car manufacturers to ensure their connected vehicles and advanced autonomous software are not developed in China or other foreign entities of concern. Despite concerns, some Chinese-manufactured cars like Tesla, Ford, and General Motors may still be sold in North America.
Brands mentioned: Tesla, Ford, General Motors.
