Send us a textLevel 3 Autonomous Driving Reaches Consumers: Spring 2025's Implementation WaveThis Thursday's Auto Intelligence Podcast examines the commercial deployment of Level 3 autonomous driving systems occurring this spring across several markets. Hosts Claire and Steve analyze how manufacturers including Mercedes-Benz, Stellantis, BMW, and Chinese competitors are moving beyond testing to deliver production vehicles with genuine hands-off, eyes-off capabilities under specific conditions.The episode explores the technical advances enabling this transition, including more affordable LiDAR sensors, AI processing with sub-50ms latency, and improved environmental sensing. They also discuss the regulatory frameworks that now permit Level 3 operation in Switzerland, parts of the EU, California, and Beijing.Despite optimistic market projections—with the global Level 3 market expected to grow from $15B to $75B by 2030—significant adoption challenges remain. Research shows 43% of users struggle to regain situational awareness when required to retake control, highlighting the need for driver education programs like those being implemented by Mercedes and Swiss authorities.The hosts dive into how dealerships are adapting their business models, from specialized staff training to new service department requirements and subscription-based sales strategies. They also compare premium and mainstream implementation approaches while providing an outlook for developments through 2030, including urban deployment expansion and insurance model evolution.About Auto AgenticAuto Agentic (www.autoagentic.ai) is a pioneering AI-driven platform transforming the automotive retail industry.

Founded in 2024, Auto Agentic was created to solve a problem no vendor was addressing: automotive didn’t lack AI tools—it lacked intelligence architecture. As features multiplied, coordination worsened, insight fragmented, and transformation stalled. Auto Agentic exists to change that. We design agentic intelligence systems that unify operations, coordinate data and workflows, and enable organizations to move from fragmented automation to connected, predictive, and self-improving intelligence. Our work is built on three foundations: • the Automotive Intelligence Pyramid • a coordinated agentic architecture of 75+ automotive-native agents • and systematic transformation partnerships Auto Agentic is SOC 2 Type II certified and trusted in regulated environments. We don’t deliver tools. We build operating intelligence. We partner with dealer groups and OEMs to architect how intelligence flows across their organizations—creating companies that coordinate rather than hand off, predict rather than react, and build advantages that compound over time.
