A Good Start to 2020 – Desay SV Singapore received the Vehicle Safety Assessment (Milestone 1) Approval to test autonomous vehicles in Singapore

SINGAPORE -�Media OutReach - 20 January 2020 - For multinational automotive electronics
innovator, Desay SV Automotive (Desay SV), 2019 ended with good news leading to
a good start for 2020. Desay SV Singapore was successfully awarded in November
2019, the Vehicle Safety Assessment (Milestones 1) license by the Singapore Land
Authority of Transport (LTA) and The Centre of Excellence for Testing and
Research of Autonomous Vehicles (CETRAN). The M1 license permits Desay SV to carry
out Autonomous Vehicle (AV) trials for unmanned vehicles within approved One-North test routes under an actual
traffic environment.

 

Singapore
is looking to be the leading global hub in the development of autonomous
vehicle technology by exploring ways to leverage the latest AV technology for
its land transport system. The launch of CETRAN in August 2016 – a 2-hectare
test facility developed by LTA, NTU and JTC — sees Singapore’s efforts to
spearhead the development of testing requirements and technology for AVs. With
this enabler, LTA is able to work with partners to deploy new AVs technologies
safely on the public roads. For Desay SV, this is an opportunity as the company
chose to set up its first overseas R&D Research Division last year in
Singapore to exclusively develop frontier technologies in Level 4 and
Level 5 vehicle autonomy and automotive cybersecurity in collaboration
with the Economic Development Board (EDB).

 

With
the award of M1 license, in which Desay SV has successfully passed the first
stage road tests (out of three stages), thus allowing its test vehicles to be
tested on authorized public road for AVs tests. Desay SV can look forward to
executing its plan to meet the second stage road tests for Milestones 2 license,
where Desay SV’s test vehicle will be assessed on advanced autonomy
technologies and safety on designated public roads.
