Volkswagen has initiated trials of its ID. Buzz AD autonomous microbuses in Los Angeles, signaling a major move toward commercial robotaxi operations. Partnering with Uber, the pilot program aims to navigate the complex regulatory and technical landscapes of urban California.
The Un-Engineering Lens
Most vehicles can’t even run a container. Calling them AI-defined is premature. At Mobile World Congress Barcelona in March 2026, LG Electronics unveiled a next-generation smart telematics solution—a combined TCU-antenna module integrating 5G, GPS, V2X, and satellite communications into a single unit. The engineering is
