I recently had Lyft’s CEO, @davidrisher on @driverlessguy_ podcast 🎙️. He discussed Lyft’s AV future and their plans for a hybrid marketplace model, along with many other insightful topics 🤖🚗
This year, Lyft subsidiary Flexdrive is hiring more than 70 full-time technicians, operations managers, fleet coordinators and maintenance specialists, many of them Lyft drivers, to support the fleet of @Waymo vehicles.
The tech in an AV is only part of it. @Flexdrive by @lyft is building the infrastructure to keep @Waymo vehicles on the road in Nashville. Opening this fall. 👷

There’s so much high-quality work happening in the world of self-driving cars. As @lyft prepares to go to London and beyond it’s been great to work face-to-face with our partners @Baidu_Inc.
Welcome to Baidu, @lyft!
@davidrisher, we were glad to show you and the team around, share more of our latest autonomous driving progress, and get you in the passenger seat. Looks like you had a good ride too 🚖
Excited for the next chapter with Lyft as Apollo Go gets set for the UK, with broader expansion across Europe to follow.

Scaling the robotaxi isn't just a goal, it’s a blueprint.
At Tensor, we aren't just building technology; we are architecting the expansion of autonomous mobility. By developing "Lyft-ready" vehicles, we are creating the definitive standard for how AV fleets integrate into global networks and scale. This is the shift from experimental pilots to industrial-scale reality.
At #CES2026, Tensor is sitting down with @lyft to reveal the framework for mass AV deployment. If you want to see the blueprint for the autonomous future, this is the session.
The Panel: Stephen Hayes, VP of Lyft Autonomous, Fleets, and Driver Operations | Hugo Fozzati, Chief Business Officer at Tensor | Amy Luca, Moderator: Chief Marketing Officer at Tensor
The Details: Wednesday, Jan 7th | 11:30am
📍 LVCC-West Hall | Door W3 | Booth #5701

Another vote of confidence in our plans for self-driving vehicles from global leader @Lyft.
We’re planning for self-driving cars to carry passengers for the first time from Spring, under our pilot scheme – harnessing this technology safely and responsibly to transform travel.
It’s official: @lyft and @Baidu_Inc are bringing AVs to London 🇬🇧
Riders across the city will be the first in the region to experience Baidu’s Apollo Go vehicles. We expect to start testing our initial fleet with dozens of vehicles next year - pending regulatory approval - through the Lyft and Freenow ecosystem, with plans to scale to hundreds from there. (Details ⬇️)
- Baidu is the world’s largest AV operator with 17M+ cumulative rideshare rides, 22 cities globally
- 240M+ km of autonomous driving, and 140M+ km completed in fully driverless mode
- Fully-electric RT6 vehicles, purpose-built for rideshare
Our hybrid network - AVs and drivers working together - will serve all of London’s travel needs. We’re working closely with Transport for London regulators and local communities to expand the rideshare market and create more opportunities for everyone.
More to come, but can’t wait to see the future of mobility arrive in one of the world’s greatest cities.
We’re excited to team up with @Waymo to bring fully autonomous ride-hailing to Nashville! ✨
The partnership launches in 2026, with plans to bring Waymo's fully autonomous AVs to Nashville riders on the Waymo app, and as we grow together, riders on the Lyft app too: https://t.co/JeXKEoYsm4
As @lyft launches autonomous rides in Atlanta with @May_Mobility this week, $LYFT EVP Jeremy Bird explains why he believes May's autonomous vehicles will shorten ETAs and get riders used to the technology. (w/@teddyfarkas)
