UBER• Uber and Wayve launch autonomous rides in London
- Uber partnered with Wayve to launch autonomous ride-hailing in London using Wayve’s self-driving, all-electric Ford Mustang Mach-E fleet.
- Transport for London granted private-hire vehicle licences for several Wayve vehicles, clearing a key regulatory step toward commercial service.
- Uber will run trips under its TfL private-hire operator licence, with a trained, TfL-licensed driver onboard to oversee each autonomous ride.
- Uber logged more than 100,000 sign-ups in eight weeks for an autonomous-ride interest list ahead of a planned public launch.
- Select riders will begin taking Wayve trips later this summer to provide feedback before broader rollout.
