Uber Technologies Inc. is ready to roll out a new autonomous vehicle, debuting a Volvo crossover designed to help the company shift its autonomous vehicle from its test phase to an eventual phase in which the new cars will be made in larger quantities for expanded commercial use.

“We’re designing for scale,” Brian Zajac, the director of hardware engineering for Uber, at a recent press event the company hosted at its Advanced Technology Center in the Strip. “The older generation was not designed for mass production.”
