AVs in Europe
The adoption of AVs has been slower in Europe compared to the United States and China, where the technology has already been deployed in various cities.
Europe has seen the roll out of various pilot projects, while according to data from McKinsey, the US and China each see more than 450,000 and 250,000 commercial rides per week, respectively.
According to Deloitte, more than a quarter of UK drivers do not trust AI in cars, mirroring scepticism in the US (26%) and Germany (25%).
This is contrasted with the overwhelming acceptance seen in India (82%) and China (77%).
Increasing visibility of AV projects, as well as providing greater publicly available safety information about AVs may go some of the way to convincing Europe’s drivers about the technology.
