The EZ-10 is a battery-powered autonomous electric vehicle designed by Ligier and marketed by EasyMile. It seats up to six people and allows six more passengers to ride standing or can accommodate a wheelchair, with the aim of helping to bridge the last mile of a trip, as a sort of "horizontal lift".[2]

As of end of 2015, the Gelderland county in the Netherlands, plans to put it to use on a 7 km long route between Ede-Wageningen station and the campus of Wageningen University and Research Center. Claimed by NU.nl

In September 2016, a pilot consisting of a short public transport route served by two EZ-10 vehicles started in the village of Appelscha.[3]
