Summary
Uber is preparing to launch robotaxi services in London later this year, partnering with autonomous vehicle company Wayve. The company has opened an interest list for Londoners who want to be among the first passengers to ride in the co-branded Uber x Wayve driverless cars. This rollout represents a significant milestone for Uber in one of its largest markets and will test whether there is public appetite for driverless ride-hailing outside of the US and China, where robotaxis are already operational.
