Navio has commenced integration of autonomous transport within SberCity's smart district, with plans to develop a scalable autonomous vehicle network for future urban expansion.
The company's urban mobility concept features self-driving vehicles operating fixed routes with on-demand stopping. This model proves particularly effective in large, mixed-use developments combining residential, commercial and social infrastructure — areas where traditional bus services often prove inefficient.
All autonomous vehicles rigorously adhere to traffic regulations, executing precisely calibrated manoeuvres to ensure passenger comfort. Early-phase implementation in smart city development allows for needs-responsive technological adaptation while improving overall road safety. Visitors may experience the technology firsthand at SberCity's showroom, with staff providing demonstrations and smart district briefings.
Navio adopts a holistic development strategy, creating bespoke smart city mobility solutions. Project scaling will see routes incorporate service stations and V2X (vehicle-to-everything) technology integration, significantly enhancing vehicular environmental perception.
Presently, highly automated vehicles (HAVs) operate under Experimental Legal Regime 2495 (ELR 2495), requiring continuous monitoring by onboard safety engineers. These specialists stand ready to assume immediate manual control during exceptional circumstances.
