WASHINGTON: Google has no plans to expand its partnership with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV to create a self-driving car, the programme chief at the Alphabet Inc unit said, affirming that the technology company was still in talks with other potential partners.
Earlier this month, Google and Fiat Chrysler agreed to work together to build a fleet of 100 self-driving minivans in the most advanced collaboration to date between Silicon Valley and a traditional carmaker. Google said it was not sharing proprietary self-driving vehicle technology with Fiat Chrysler, and that the vehicles would not be offered for sale.
