Singapore-built Hyundai Ioniq 5 robotaxi passes its driving test in the US

April 17, 2024 3:19 AMThe robotaxi version of the Ioniq 5 electric crossover is assembled by Hyundai's advanced factory in Jurong for Motional, an American joint venture with the Korean automaker working on driverless vehicles in the United States.

The made-in-Singapore robotaxis are deployed in Las Vegas, Nevada, where they are available in select areas as Uber rides. As these fully-autonomous cars are still in the research & development phase, their operation is not completely driverless yet — a staffer is in the driver's seat during every trip for safety reasons.

The state-of-the-art Korean robotaxi even "qualified" for a US driver's licence in a simulated driving test, conducted in a closed course, complete with an actual driving examiner from the Department of Motor Vehicles.
