Autonomous driving systems were tested on public roads. The car equipped with the Drive Assist complex drove along the M-12 highway about 730 kilometers, of which almost 700 was autonomous. The aggregate was the Toyota Prius, equipped with sensors and computing equipment, which will be used in serial atoms.
The ADAS complex (Advanced Driver-SSSISTANCE SYSTEMS) in the atom will consist of 17 electronic assistants, including adaptive cruise control with the function of retention, automatic parking systems and remote control functions.
As part of the testing on the M-12 highway, engineers tested the management at high speed, which is impossible in urban conditions, and at the same time the “endurance” of the system during long trips, since such tests were not previously carried out on such a scale.
Elektrokar Atom: The first short trip on the prototype Russian electrocard atom: the finished body of his electric car showed all the details of the atom.
The atom said that the test results “confirmed the effectiveness of ADAS technology, giving information for further analysis and improvement of autonomous control systems.” “We had the opportunity to collect and analyze data in the process of movement, which made it possible not only to make adjustments, but also to check the hypotheses in real conditions,” added the head of the ADAS system testing group in the atom. “On the highway, we came across various road situations, which significantly improved the quality of testing.”
The test driver was driving a test prototype in case you need to intervene in the control process. At the same time, almost the entire route, the car drove in autonomous mode. The path from Moscow to Kazan along the M-12 took 11 hours at an average speed of 90 kilometers per hour.
The production of atoms should begin at the Moskvich plant within 2025. It is already known that an electric car will drive an electric motor with a capacity of 204 horsepower, which nourishes a battery with a capacity of 77 kilowatt hours. On one of its charges, the atom is able to drive up to 500 kilometers.
According to preliminary data, the atom will cost from 2.9 to 4 million rubles, excluding state considy.
