Audi will axe its Artemis autonomous driving project under Volkswagen Group CEO Oliver Blume’s new software plan, a report has claimed.
German trade publication Automobilwoche said Artemis – which sought to develop a Level Four-capable autonomous vehicle by 2024 – has been cancelled because of slow progress.
The news follows recent confirmation that Volkswagen's Trinity flagship – earmarked to use the Software 2.0 platform incorporating the Cariad software division's Level Four autonomous tech – had been delayed until 2028 or 2029.
