Toyota is going all-in on autonomous vehicles, announcing plans to open a center in the U. S. this year to test driving scenarios too dangerous to perform on public roads.
The new test center, which will be operated by the Toyota Research Institute, will be built in Ottawa Lake, Michigan, outside Detroit and not far from Toyota’s engineering center, the company said in a statement.
“By constructing a course for ourselves, we can design it around our unique testing needs and rapidly advance capabilities,” said Ryan Eustice, TRI senior vice president of automated driving.
