Uber & Wayve launch London robotaxis

Big news from London: Uber and AI firm Wayve have launched the city's first public robotaxi service on 3 September. The initial fleet consists of fewer than 20 Ford Mustang Mach‑E vehicles, each with a safety driver, and rides are available on UberX, Comfort, or Electric at no extra cost. London becomes the second European city (after Zagreb) to offer such a service. This is a critical real‑world test in one of the world's most complex driving environments, as Wayve's CEO noted. The UK Transport Secretary hailed it as a "major milestone". The partnership combines Uber's vast ride‑hailing network with Wayve's AV 2.0 AI‑driven approach – learning from experience rather than relying on pre‑mapped HD maps. While still small‑scale, this deployment signals growing confidence in autonomous mobility across dense urban centres. All eyes will be on rider feedback, safety data, and fleet expansion in the coming weeks.

✈️ UISEE releases its 2026 half‑year operational update with notable overseas‑business progress.

The firm achieves 43.5% year‑on‑year growth in overseas revenue. Its L4 driverless tractor fleet has gone into official air‑side operation at Singapore Changi Airport. Multiple pilot projects across the Middle East and Europe are scheduled to kick off trial runs within this year.

Up to now, UISEE’s autonomous‑driving kits have been deployed in six countries and regions, accumulating over 10.2 million km of real‑world driverless operation. Air‑port scenarios remain its core competitive advantage for global expansion.

🚗 XPeng completes public‑road validation for its 2nd‑gen VLA ADAS system in Germany.

The Chinese‑trained large‑model driving solution delivers comparable local‑road performance with minimal additional regional training datasets, proving strong cross‑border generalization capability for intelligent‑driving algorithms.

XPeng targets securing European regulatory approval in 2027 to commercially launch the VLA system for overseas markets. It marks an important milestone for Chinese autonomous‑driving tech moving from domestic testing toward real‑world deployment across European complex traffic environments.

📜 China updates traffic‑safety legislation for autonomous vehicles

The revised draft of China’s Road Traffic Safety Law was submitted to the national legislature on Aug 25, adding a dedicated chapter for autonomous‑driving automobiles.

The draft draws a clear legal boundary between full autonomous mode and driver‑assist functions. Vehicle manufacturers and importers shall be held accountable for traffic offences when autonomous‑driving mode is engaged. Human drivers remain liable for violations if only driver‑assist features are used.

This long‑awaited legal framework addresses core liability challenges for the industry. It will support large‑scale domestic testing and commercial roll‑out of self‑driving technology, and also offers institutional reference for Chinese ITS solutions going global.

🤖 Nevada green‑lights large‑scale Robotaxi commercial deployment for Las Vegas

Clark County transportation regulators in Nevada have voted unanimously to approve commercial robotaxi permits for Las Vegas on August 24. Tesla, Waymo and Uber‑partnered autonomous‑driving operators are allowed to deploy a combined maximum of 8,000 self‑driving vehicles within a 12‑month window.

The permit allocates 5,000 units for Tesla, 1,000 for Waymo and 2,000 for Uber‑affiliated partners. Regulators have imposed mandatory rules covering accident reporting, data retention and regular safety inspections.

Operators note this figure represents an upper limit, and actual vehicle roll‑out will be lower than the approved cap. This marks one of America’s largest‑ever commercial approvals for robotaxi services.

Uber & Baidu Apollo Go Roll Out Driverless Robotaxis in Dubai 🤖

✨ A key autonomous mobility milestone landed in the Middle East on August 20. Uber has integrated Baidu Apollo Go’s fully‑driverless robotaxis onto its Dubai ride‑hailing platform, supported by local fleet operator New Horizon Luxury Transport.

Riders can get matched with zero‑safety‑operator autonomous vehicles when booking UberX or Uber Comfort services. This deployment expands Baidu’s global commercial footprint for robotaxi services.

The project also supports Dubai’s smart‑city mobility roadmap, showcasing how Chinese autonomous technology partners with global mobility platforms to deliver commercial self‑driving services in international markets.

China MOT Launches AI+Transport Scenarios 📊

🚀 China’s Ministry of Transport unveiled its first‑batch AI‑powered transport application scenarios on August 20. Centered on the Jingxiong Expressway benchmark project, the initiative leverages AI for real‑time road incident detection, heavy‑duty truck platooning tests, and infrastructure monitoring.

More than 30,000 km of platooning test mileage has been completed. The action encourages scaled deployment across highways, railways and aviation, aiming to foster new‑generation transport infrastructure by 2030.

It marks a major push to embed artificial intelligence into daily traffic governance, safety emergency response and transport scheduling across China’s multi‑modal transport network.

🤝 Sino‑European smart‑driving collaboration update 🧠

Horizon Robotics and Volkswagen Group deepen technical ties on AI foundation‑model autonomous driving through their joint venture Coolidge (CARIZON). Adopting white‑box licensing, Coolidge will leverage Horizon’s AI large‑model capabilities to build Volkswagen’s unified domestic intelligent‑driving solution for China.

The AI foundation model will pair with the in‑house C7H chip and GAIA world‑model platform, empowering L3 / L4 autonomous driving for passenger cars and Robotaxi services. This partnership accelerates localized R&D and mass‑production iteration, representing a new “In China, For China” technical‑cooperation model for global automotive incumbents.
