Fiat said teaming up with partners would allow it to benefit from economies of scale.

Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler on Wednesday said it was joining a BMW-led group to develop fully self-driving vehicles, the latest tie-up in an industry racing to get ready for the cars of the future.

German luxury carmaker BMW began working on the project with US computer chip giant Intel and tech firm Mobileye last year. The group aims to have their first fully automated cars in production by 2021.
