BMW AG and Daimler AG have finalized a long-term agreement to collaborate on driver-assist and Level 4 automated driving systems.

The partners say development work will be shared by a combined 1,200 technicians in Sindelfingen and Unterschleissheim, Germany. The results of their work are to be implemented independently by each company.
