Lyft Inc. announced three new partnerships with autonomous driving technology vendors, including Intel Corp. spinoff Mobileye Global Inc., as it plays catch-up in offering driverless rides on its platform.
The San Francisco-based rideshare company said in a statement that it will make its platform available to all cars with Mobileye’s self-driving system, giving fleet owners a new way to make money from their vehicles. The firm did not provide a launch timeline or specify how many Mobileye vehicles will be available through Lyft.
