Autonomous vehicles are the key to changing urban transportation beyond recognition in the next few years.There are both traditional OEMs and new vehicle developers who are working in this ecosystem to improve and introduce fully-autonomous vehicles on the road.

These vehicles will have advanced features from traditional vehicles and improve the driving experience for passengers. The Society of Automotive Engineers International (SAE) has defined six levels of automation to classify a system's sophistication, ranking from 0 to 5.

Level 0: No Automation

In this level, the driver is in control of the entire vehicle and all aspects of driving are entirely manually controlled. Example of such a vehicle is 2018 KIA Rio, among others.

Level 1: Driver Assistance

In this level, the vehicle system can assist with some functions such as controlling the steering or the vehicle speed.The driver handles a majority of the vehicle functions.

Features such as adaptive cruise control or lane keeping are part of this level of automation.

Level 2: Partial Automation

In this level, the vehicle system is able to control the braking, steering, or acceleration of the vehicle.These features can be applied together and the coordination between two or more of these assist technologies helps a vehicle to be of Level 2 status.

A driver is there during all times to actively monitor the vehicle's progress and be ready to intervene at any time. Most vehicles in 2018 have these features of Level 2 such as GM Super Cruise, Mercedes-Benz Distronic Plus, Tesla Autopilot, Nissan ProPilot Assist, and Volvo Pilot Assist, among others.

Level 3: Conditional Automation

In this level, the vehicle system is able to detect the environment around the vehicle using sensors such as LiDARs and make informed decisions for the vehicle such as overtaking a slower moving vehicle in front of it.The vehicle system is able to manage most aspects of driving, including monitoring the environment.

The system prompts the driver to intervene when it encounters a scenario it can't navigate. Audi Traffic Jam Assist is the only commercialized level 3 auto pilot system developed by Audi for Audi A8.

Level 4: High Automation

In this level, the vehicle can operate without human intervention but only in certain conditions. There is an option to manually override the vehicle system functions.

Level 5: Full Automation

In this level, the vehicles can operate as driverless vehicles in any road conditions. These vehicles are being developed to be used as robo-taxis, such as Waymo, among others.
