<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">'Entrusted
 to the best French specialists, its design is the fruit of ten years of
 research and expertise which allows it to achieve the highest level of 
autonomy possible: Level 5, making the NAVYA ARMA the first entirely 
autonomous series vehicle.</span></div>
