$UBER just launched Baidu’s fully driverless Apollo Go vehicles on its platform in Dubai. 🚨
A few details stood out:
• Apollo Go vehicles will be available through UberX, Uber Comfort and Uber’s dedicated Autonomous option.
• New Horizon Luxury Transport will operate the vehicles.
• Uber and Baidu plan to deploy thousands of Apollo Go vehicles across Uber’s global network.
• Apollo Go has completed more than 350 million autonomous kilometers, including more than 240 million fully driverless kilometers.
• Uber says it now has more than 30 autonomous vehicle partners globally.
I expect nonstop news such as this well into 2028. The AV fears should gradually dispel soon as more news flow in the months ahead regarding new deployments.
