General Motors EN-V (Electric Networked-Vehicle) is a 2-seat urban electric concept car jointly developed by Segway Inc. and General Motors that can be driven normally or operated autonomously.〔 Designed for urban environments and around an extrapolation of the P.U.M.A. prototype announced by GM and Segway in 2009,〔(GM Unveils EN-V Concept: A Vision for Future Urban Mobility ) gm.com, 2010-03-25〕 the EN-V was unveiled at the joint GM & SAIC pavilion at the Expo 2010 in Shanghai from 1 May through 31 October 2010.〔 Three different vehicles are showcased, 笑 ''Xiao'' (Laugh), 骄 ''Jiao'' (Pride) and 妙 ''Miao'' (Magic).〔(GM Shows Capability of EN-V Concept Vehicles at Expo 2010 ) gm.com, 2010-08-17〕 In October 2011 General Motors announced its decision to develop a second concept EN-V under the Chevrolet badge for use in field testing and demonstration programs, beginning in Tianjin, China. In June 2014 General Motors announced it would commence testing of the four wheel EN-V 2.0 at the Tianjin Eco-city〔http://media.gm.com/media/cn/en/gm/contacts_listing.detail.html/content/Pages/news/cn/en/2014/June/0619_env.html〕 ==Driverless vehicle== The most significant feature of the vehicles is autonomous operation.〔 The EN-V can detect and avoid obstacles – including other vehicles – park themselves and come to you when called by phone.〔 Accomplished through a combination of GPS, vehicle-based sensors, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication, this autonomous technology is an extrapolation of that found in GM's 2007 autonomous "The Boss" Chevrolet Tahoe created for the DARPA Grand Challenge (2007).〔〔 The EN-Vs can communicate with each other allowing platooning, with one or more EN-Vs tagging along automatically behind a leader. Also, if an EN-V detects another in close proximity, it can check what that other is intending to do and agree on how to pass it safely.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「General Motors EN-V」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
