Toyota halts plan to install U.S. connected vehicle tech by 2021
WASHINGTON - Toyota Motor Corp said on Friday it was halting plans to install Dedicated Short-Range Communications technology, aimed at letting cars and trucks communicate with one another to avoid collisions, on U.S. vehicles beginning in 2021.
Toyota announced plans in April 2018 to begin the installation of DSRC technology in 2021 “with the goal of adoption across most of its lineup by the mid-2020s.” The Japanese automaker added that it would “continue to re-evaluate the deployment environment” and but said it is still a strong backer of DSRC “because we believe it is the only proven and available technology for collision avoidance communication.”
In December 2016, the U.S. Department of Transportation proposed to mandate DSRC in all new vehicles. The Trump administration has not acted on the proposal. Ford said in January it planned to deploy cellular vehicle-to-everything technology, or C-V2X , in all new U.S. vehicle models beginning in 2022.
