無印良品也要玩跨界？竟然要推出無人駕駛汽車！

Muji just made autonomous vehicles slightly more chic. The minimalist Japanese company has teamed up with Finnish autonomous driving company Sensible 4 to create the Gacha shuttle bus, an autonomous vehicle that it claims is the first in the world designed to function in all weather conditions.

無印良品的的設計讓汽車造型看起來有點復古的感覺。這個日本簡約品牌公司和芬蘭的汽車公司Sensible 4合作，共同研發了Gacha穿梭巴士。這款無人駕駛汽車據說是世界上首款在任何環境中都能運行的汽車。

For the collaboration, Muji gave the shuttle bus and user experience its sleek design aesthetic, while Sensible 4 provided the autonomous driving technology, including navigation and obstacle detection that can function in heavy rain, fog, and snow–all of which are common in Finland's long winters.

在合作中，無印良品負責爲用戶提供的是時尚美學設計，而Sensible 4提供自動駕駛的技術，其中包括導航，障礙探測，以及在大雨，迷霧，下雪這些在芬蘭漫長冬天常見的氣候中也能夠很好運行的技術。

“We are developing these vehicles so that they can become part of [the] daily transportation service chain,” says Harri Santamala, CEO of Sensible 4. “Autonomous vehicles can't become mainstream until their technology has been insured to work in all climates.”

“我們開發這款車是希望它們成爲日常交通服務鏈的一部分，如果這款車的技術不能夠讓其在所有氣候正常運行的話，這款車也不應該能普及。” Sensible 4的首席執行官Harri Santamala如是說。

The vehicle will hit the streets of Helsinki in March 2019 (let's all plan a trip to Helsinki!) and will then start shuttling passengers around three Finnish cities in real-life traffic, presumably with planned stops at the country's new Muji store, scheduled to open in Helsinki in November 2019.

2019年3月這款車就會在赫爾辛基的街上運行了（讓我們開始計劃一次赫爾辛基之旅吧！）屆時，他會在芬蘭的三個城市開始接送乘客，真正出現在城市交通中，而且計劃會在城中2019年11月新開的無印良品門店點設站。

If tests go as planned, the companies are working to develop an entire Gacha fleet, which they are hoping to roll out in 2020 with the hope of being in mainstream use by 2021.

如果按照計劃進展順利的話，該公司計打造整個Gacha艦隊，有希望在2020年腿型，2021年普及。
