Wayve, a U.K.-based autonomous vehicle technology firm, is collaborating with Uber to establish a driverless robotaxi service in London, aiming for a launch following new government initiatives to expedite self-driving pilots. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander announced that trials will commence as early as spring 2026. Details on the service, including the number of vehicles or manufacturing partners, have not been disclosed. This partnership builds on Uber's investment in Wayve, focusing on integrating advanced AI technology into vehicles for enhanced operational safety and customer service.
We have a partner ecosystem for bringing a service to market. Wayve provides driving intelligence integrated into a base vehicle provided by a vehicle manufacturer, and then we would have a fleet operator, and Uber would operate the service.
This is a defining moment for U.K. autonomy, as we accelerate efforts in the self-driving domain. Our partnership with Uber is a critical step towards realizing our shared vision.
