General Motors (GM) is planning to revive its Cruise autonomous driving program by luring back former employees and hiring new staff. The focus will be on developing autonomous technology for personal vehicles, starting with a "hands-free, eyes-free" system. GM's Chief Product Officer, Sterling Anderson, emphasizes the importance of autonomy for the company's future. Additionally, GM has announced a deal with CATL for LFP batteries for the Chevrolet Bolt EV, while also investing in gas-powered vehicles with over $888 million in a V-8 engine plant.
