Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) is a lidar (light detection and ranging) guided bus and bi-articulated bus system for urban passenger transport. Developed and manufactured by CRRC through CRRC Zhuzhou Institute Co Ltd, it was unveiled in Zhuzhou in the Hunan province on June 2, 2017.[2][3][11] ART is specifically referred to as a train or rapid transit as Digital-rail Rapid Transit by its manufacturer, however the public describes it as a bus and Bus rapid transit. Its exterior is composed of individual fixed sections joined by articulated gangways, resembling a rubber-tyred tram and translohr.
The system is labelled as "autonomous" in English, however, the models in operation are optically guided and feature a driver on board.[12] Despite "rail" in the name, the system does not use rails.
Automated Rapid Transit systems (ARTs) can operate independently without the need for a guiding sensor and as a result, they fall under the classification of buses. Consequently, vehicles deployed on these routes are mandated to display license plates.
