Chip Motors Targets Autonomy Via Low-Speed Vehicle Classification

Miami startup Chip Motors unveiled the Chip, a 25 mph electric low-speed vehicle starting at $15,000, with teleoperated self-parking and Level 4 autonomy as a stated goal. The LSV classification restricts operation to roads posted 35 mph or below but carries lighter safety and crash-testing requirements than full-speed passenger cars. Presales are open; deliveries target 2027.
