A Cruise test car on display. DETROIT — General Motors’ Cruise autonomous vehicle unit on March 20 asked California for permission to test the cars across the entire state. Cruise already is running an autonomous ride-hailing service in its hometown of San Francisco after testing for more than two years. If granted, the test permit won’t allow Cruise to carry non-employee passengers outside of San Francisco. Cruise also has been testing autonomous Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicles, and carrying employees, friends and family members in central Austin, Texas, and parts of Phoenix.
