Cruise, the autonomous vehicle company, says it is not relaunching its robotaxi service. This news comes after GM announced it had acquired full ownership of Cruise.

General Motors (GM) has completed its acquisition of Cruise, the autonomous vehicle business, as part of a strategic pivot to developing autonomous technology for personal vehicles instead of robotaxis.

General Motors Co. is cutting almost half of the workforce in the Cruise driverless car unit, according to an internal memo and people familiar with the matter, part of a previously announced plan to halt robotaxi service and absorb the operations into its broader business.
