General Motors wants to test out a fleet of self-driving electric cars

Back in January, General Motors announced that it had formed a “long-term strategic alliance” with the ride-sharing company known as Lyft, which involved “joint development of a network of on-demand autonomous vehicles.” Neither company has said much about the alliance in the months since then, but the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday that the two companies are planning to put a fleet of fully-autonomous and fully-electric Chevrolet Bolts in an unnamed city for testing purposes sometime next year.
