WeRide Scales Up With Ambitious Robotaxi Vision

WeRide’s launch of driverless robotaxi services in Abu Dhabi opens the door to massive scaling in the region.
The company currently operates 150+ robotaxis, but plans with Uber call for deployments reaching thousands of vehicles across the Middle East and Europe.

Uber’s deals this year span robotaxis, delivery, and trucking — featuring collaborations with May Mobility, Volkswagen, Momenta, Pony.ai, Baidu, and Nuro (with Lucid Gravity SUVs coming to a premium robotaxi service).
The Abu Dhabi launch signals that years of partnerships are finally materializing into commercial, real-world autonomous transport networks.
