通用汽車（紐交所: GM）的無人駕駛部門Cruise表示，計劃在加利福尼亞恢復其機器人出租車的運營，此前由於其無人駕駛車輛在去年年底發生行人事故後中斷。
What Happened: The company said that it will deploy several manual mapping vehicles in Sunnyvale and Mountain View starting Thursday. The company intends to start supervised robotaxi testing in the state later this fall with up to five autonomous vehicles, it added.
事件經過：該公司表示，從本週四開始，將在Sunnyvale和Mountain View部署數輛手動繪製地圖車輛。公司計劃在今年秋天在該州以最多五輛自動駕駛車輛進行監督測試。
"Resuming testing in the Bay Area is an important step forward as we continue to work closely with California regulators and local stakeholders. This will allow our local employees to engage directly with our product as they refine and improve our tech through R&D," the company said in a post on social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
「在灣區恢復測試是我們繼續與加州監管機構和當地利益相關方密切合作的重要一步。這將使我們的本地員工能夠直接參與我們的產品，通過研發改進和完善我們的技術，」該公司在社交媒體平台X（前身爲Twitter）上的一篇帖子中寫道。

Why It Matters: Cruise suspended all of its operations in the U.S. late last year following the involvement of one of its robotaxis in an accident in San Francisco, leading to heightened regulatory scrutiny and the exit of its co-founder and then CEO Kyle Vogt.
爲什麼重要：Cruise在去年年底取消了其在美國的所有運營，因爲其機器人出租車在舊金山發生事故，並導致監管審查加大以及其聯合創始人兼前首席執行官Kyle Vogt離職。
The company resumed manual driving in the city of Phoenix to gather road information earlier this year in April and in Houston and Dallas, Texas in June.
該公司於今年4月在菲尼克斯市恢復手動駕駛以收集道路信息，並於6月在德克薩斯州的休斯頓和達拉斯恢復手動駕駛。
For the first half of 2024, Cruise accrued an operating loss of $1.65 billion, 28% higher than the loss of $1.29 billion recorded in the corresponding period of last year. GM also spent $583 million on restructuring Cruise in the period.
2024年上半年，Cruise的運營虧損達到了16.5億美元，比去年同期的12.9億美元的虧損增加了28%。通用汽車在此期間還花費了5830萬美元對Cruise進行重組。
Last month, Cruise issued a recall for the entirety of its U.S. fleet over concerns that they may brake unexpectedly. The company updated software in all of its vehicles on the road to fix the issue.
上個月，Cruise公司對其整個美國車隊發佈了召回通知，因擔心它們可能會意外剎車。該公司更新了所有在路上的車輛上的軟件以解決這個問題。
