FCA stated in the same presentation that their goal was to be one of the first OEMs to the retail market with autonomous driving. The self-driving Pacifica Hybrid will feature the same technology that was developed by Waymo on their Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid self-driving program.

Back in May of 2018, FCA US announced they would expand their partnership with an agreement to add up to 62,000 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans to Waymo’s self-driving fleet.
FCA US and Waymo also announced that they were beginning discussions about the use of Waymo self-driving technology, including potentially through licensing, in a FCA-manufactured vehicle available to retail customers.
