Initial supervised trial runs are set to launch in 2025, followed by fully driverless operations in 2026.

Baidu CEO said he sees a clear path to profitability for Apollo Go.

WeRide began fully unmanned robotaxi pilot operations in Abu Dhabi, creating the first purely unmanned robotaxi fleet in the Middle East.

Baidu plans to launch its Apollo Go robotaxi service in Switzerland and plans to set up a local company there in the coming months.

The partnership is expected to first launch in a key market in the Middle East later this year.

WeRide and Uber will expand their robotaxi partnership to several new cities each year outside the US and China.

Momenta and Uber will first launch robotaxi service in Europe in 2026.

Li Auto's future foray into humanoid robots is a 100 percent certainty, just not right now, said its CEO.

WeRide's robotaxis begin to be available on Uber's platform in Abu Dhabi, marking the first time Uber has launched autonomous vehicles outside the US.

Baidu has been granted license to put 10 Apollo Go robotaxis into trial operation in Hong Kong, the first time it has been permitted to test robotaxi outside of the Chinese mainland.
