German Transport Minister Alexander Dobrindt and chairman of Deutsche Bahn Ruediger Grube were among the passengers of the first self-driving bus journey in Germany, a development that may radically change transportation, not only in Europe, but all over the world. The bus, dubbed “Olli”, made several rounds around the Euref-Campus premises in Berlin, and is due to undergo further testing in DB’s Bavaria-based Bad Birnbach test track before it will can be approved to hit the open roads.

The five-door hatchback with rear-wheel drive has an electric motor positioned at its tail, freeing up space at the front of the vehicle and providing a motor output of 168 horsepower.
