Coca-Cola has canceled its plan to sell Costa coffee after private equity bids fell short of what they were expecting.

According to a Financial Times report that cites people familiar with the matter, they ended negotiations back in December.

The report added that TDR Capital and Bain Capital's special situations fund

were among the bidders in the final round of negotiations.

Coca-Cola sought around £2 billion, roughly half the £3.9 billion it paid to acquire Costa from Whitbread in 2018.

A source added that the company may revisit this plan at a later date.

The features include semi-autonomous navigation, response to traffic lights and stop signs, lane change assistance and self-parking.
