Abstract

The convergence of autonomous driving technology and electric vehicles (EVs) represents a significant leap forward in the automotive industry, promising enhanced safety, efficiency, and sustainability. This paper examines the current technological advancements in autonomous electric vehicles (AEVs), including developments in artificial intelligence, sensor technologies, and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. It also explores the regulatory challenges associated with the deployment and integration of AEVs into existing transportation systems. Key issues such as safety standards, data privacy, liability concerns, and infrastructure requirements are analyzed. The study highlights the interplay between technological innovation and regulatory frameworks, emphasizing the need for coordinated efforts among stakeholders to address these challenges. By reviewing recent research, industry reports, and case studies, this paper provides a comprehensive overview of the future trajectory of AEVs, offering insights into the potential impacts on mobility, urban planning, and policy development. The findings underscore the importance of creating adaptable and forward-looking regulations to support the successful integration of autonomous electric vehicles into the mainstream automotive market.
