%X Autonomous vehicles can reduce traffic accidents, traffic congestion and parking demand and hence have great potential to become a major transportation mode in the near future. The potential market for autonomous vehicles is huge. Therefore, it is a necessity to develop strategies so as to outperform in this highly competitive world market. This research employs SWOT method to generate 14 criteria for the development of autonomous vehicles. Then, a decision-making method called ¡°Decision Making and Trial Evaluation Laboratory-based Analytic Network Process¡± (DANP) is used to prioritize these criteria. Results show that two criteria that are strengths¨CAdvanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and complete supply chain of Information and Communication Technology (ICT ) ¨C should be treated with priority and another criterion ¨C lack of own auto-brand and first-tier supplier ¨C is not the focus. The result is fully coincident with the real situation of industrial development in Taiwan and can be a good reference for Taiwan¡¯s government
