Autonomous Driving Hits Turin Streets as EU Envelope Project Moves to Live Testing

After three years of lab work, the European Envelope project is finally taking its self‑driving technology to real roads in Turin.

  1. Researchers spent the last three years fine‑tuning sensors, AI algorithms and safety protocols inside controlled environments.
  2. In early 2026 the team secured permission from local authorities to run pilot vehicles on public streets around the city centre.
  3. These test cars now cruise Turin’s traffic, collecting data that will help validate the system for wider European rollout.
  4. Officials say the live trials will inform future regulations and boost confidence in autonomous mobility.

Success in Turin could pave the way for everyday driverless rides across Europe.
