Lyft has had talks over the past year about joining forces on self-driving–car development with German automotive system manufacturer Bosch, according to two people with direct knowledge of the discussions.
Lyft also has considered selling a stake in its self-driving–car unit to a player such as Bosch, said the two people. The status of the talks with Bosch, which were ongoing as recently as this summer, isn’t clear. Bosch has an automated driving development unit with facilities in Silicon Valley.
