Navya has developed a next-generation electric and autonomous minibus. This smart, self-driving shuttle can transport up to 15 passengers on public or private roads. Several companies, communities and cities are now using its technology to meet major mobility and flow management challenges.
What is Navya’s autonomous minibus?
The Navya minibus is a shuttle designed to transport up to 15 passengers in an autonomous manner (self-driven). Fitted with cutting-edge technology, this vehicle is able to run on public or private roads and paths.
How does the Navya minibus work?
The smart Navya bus runs without a driver thanks to a high-performance guidance and detection system. Relying on the system’s sensors, it locates itself precisely within its environment and adapts navigation according to the various situations it may be presented with (obstacles, vehicles, pedestrians, etc.).
