POLucid Group, Uber, and autonomous-tech specialist Nuro have teamed up on a next-generation global robotaxi program set to start public service in 2026.
The robotaxi is built on Lucid’s all-electric Gravity SUV platform and integrates Nuro’s Level 4 autonomous driving system, capable of fully driverless operation in defined conditions, with an Uber-designed in-cabin experience that riders will summon through the Uber app.
Testing on public roads has already begun in the San Francisco Bay Area under supervision, marking a major step toward commercial launch later this year.
Lucid’s vehicle architecture focuses on range, comfort, and safety, while Uber provides global scale and fleet management.
Over the next six years, Uber aims to deploy at least 20,000 of these robotaxis in dozens of cities worldwide.
If autonomous robotaxis become mainstream in 2026, how soon could they replace regular ride-hailing everywhere?
