Aim This study identifies and compares perceptions of autonomous vehicle (AV) implementation among three Swedish stakeholder groups:  Future Users ,  Urban Planners , and  Developers.  Method Semi-structured comparative focus groups were conducted separately with each of the three groups of stakeholders and the transcripts were analysed in broad themes using thematic analysis. Results Assumptions, hopes, concerns,  and  direction of development  were the main themes that emerged from the analysis . Assumptions  included electrification of vehicles, changes in travel demand, and the need for regulations;  Hopes  included the idea that AVs will contribute to a more accessible and safer transport system;  Concerns  included overtrust in AV technology, a possible detrimental impact on the city in the form of congestion and higher demand for investments in infrastructure that could outcompete other modes of transport ;  and  Direction of development and their own role,  where the need for collaboration between stakeholders and implementation of AVs in connection with society’s needs were emphasised. Conclusions AVs were seen to lead to both positive and negative consequences depending on implementation and the development of society. The study shows that dialogue between different stakeholders is lacking but it is desired for the inclusive implementation of AVs.
