Rivian is building something special: vehicle, compute, software, and manufacturing in the US all working together. Excited to partner with @Rivian and @RJScaringe to bring autonomous R2 robotaxis to @Uber.
RJ Scaringe@RJScaringe

I’m excited to announce a partnership with @Uber. As part of this, Uber plans to invest up to $1.25 billion in Rivian and deploy up to 50,000 R2 robotaxis. This partnership accelerates our path to Level 4 autonomy and supports our goal of building one of the safest autonomous platforms in the world—across both shared and personally owned vehicles. The combination of Rivian’s rapidly growing data flywheel, our in-house RAP1 inference platform (800 TOPS), and our multi-modal perception stack provides a powerful foundation to scale autonomy quickly and responsibly over the next couple of years.

We've built an impactful @Uber business in Argentina over the past 10 years and we are excited to bring our full platform vision in the next 10, relaunching @UberEats to offer an integrated Mobility and Delivery offering that will be unique in the country.

Uber Is Quietly Winning the AV Rideshare Setup If 2025 was the proof point that consumers will actually take autonomous rides at scale, 2026 is starting to look like the year the strategic map gets redrawn. For the last few years the AV debate has mostly been framed around who has the best self-driving technology. That still matters of course. But increasingly that is the wrong question for investors. The more important question now is: who is best positioned to turn AV supply into a scaled rideshare network? That is a different question entirely. To level set: this is no longer just about the best AV stack @Waymo is the only player that has really crossed from demo to scaled commercial reality. The company said in February it was already doing more than 400,000 paid rides per week across its operating markets, and it raised another $1.6 billion while laying groundwork for expansion into more cities. Its new Arizona manufacturing facility with $MGA is designed to produce “tens of thousands” of autonomous vehicles per year at full capacity. That is the most real robotaxi business in the U.S. by a mile. But the leap from “best AV operator today” to “winner of AV rideshare economics” is not automatic. Because scaled rideshare is not just a software problem. It is a supply problem, a dispatch problem, a maintenance problem, a financing problem, and maybe most importantly a utilization problem. That is where $Uber's setup starts to look much more interesting than the market gives it credit for. Uber is not trying to win autonomy. It is trying to win the network. Uber’s strategy now looks pretty clear: let others build the autonomous brain, while Uber becomes the default marketplace, demand layer, and utilization optimizer. That may end up being the smarter economic position. A lot of commentary around AV tends to sloppily bundle “partnerships” together as if they are equal. They are not, some partnerships are real supply, some are geographic options, but Uber increasingly has both.

Wayve, @Uber and @NissanMotor have signed an agreement to collaborate on the development and deployment of robotaxi services. Work will now begin on planning a pilot deployment in Tokyo for late 2026, using the Nissan LEAF powered by the Wayve AI Driver, and available to riders through Uber.

It’s not a car! A few months ago, I took my first ride in a @Zoox robotaxi with co-founder and CTO Jesse Levinson. It was clear from the start that their commitment to safety and purpose-built AV tech would make them an incredible partner for @Uber. Coming to Vegas this summer, LA next year!

Our team hosted several analysts in Abu Dhabi today--with driverless rides on Uber with WeRide, a visit to our fleet partner Tawasul's depot, and multiple immersions with leadership teams at Uber, WeRide and Tawasul. Tomorrow, they visit Dubai and experience driverless Baidu. Here's a snippet from Wolfe Research's takeaways from Day 1.

With our latest announcements, Dubai will become the first city with multiple AV options on Uber. Middle East is increasingly emerging as the front runner for AV deployments globally—Uber IR team will be hosting several analysts later this month for an immersion with our team and partners. More to come!

Awesome to see the UK establishing a leadership role in developing AI talent - we @Uber are super excited about partnering with @wayve_ai as they build Embodied AI than can truly scale globally.
Alex Kendall@alexgkendall

Another major milestone in @wayve_ai's history. Proud to say we’ve secured $1.5 billion Series D investment at $8.6 billion valuation. We started a decade ago with a contrarian technical thesis: that self-driving is an AI problem, and Embodied AI will enable autonomy to scale without rules, HD-maps and using mass-produced hardware. Now we're entering commercialisation, we're taking a contrarian commercial strategy too, selecting the business model with the largest opportunity to scale. We're not selling our own cars, which limits scale to one brand. We're not operating our own fleets, which limits autonomy to city-by-city expansion. We're licensing autonomy to any vehicle, anywhere. This new business model is only possible now because we've built a general purpose AI driver, which is flexible to work with any vehicle architecture and proven to drive all around the world. This unlocks a high margin software licensing model, which we're now excited to be deploying with global partners with the strength of this new funding round. Thank you to our new and returning financial investors for backing our vision all the way: @EclipseVentures, @balderton, @SoftBank, @OTPPinfo, @BaillieGifford, @BritishBBank, @IcehouseVenture and @Schroders among other global institutional investors. We're deepening our partnerships with @Microsoft and @nvidia to build and deploy Embodied AI at global scale, and with @Uber, who are announcing supervised robotaxi trials in 10 cities around the world, starting with London this year. To top it off, three top-10 global automakers across Europe, Japan and USA are backing and believing in our technology for consumer vehicles and robotaxis: @MercedesBenz, @Nissan and @Stellantis. I’ve always believed that our end-to-end AI approach would lead the way in autonomy. This latest investment and the endorsement that comes with it make me believe that the industry is also now converging on that idea too. What's next? We have a busy next few years of commercial delivery: supervised robotaxi trials around the world in 2026 and consumer vehicle sales from 2027. Thank you to the incredible Wayve team for making this all possible. Check out all details here: wayve.ai/press/series-d/

Next stop: fully autonomous rides in Dubai with @Baidu_Inc
Baidu Inc.@Baidu_Inc

Booking an Uber in Dubai could soon mean riding with Apollo Go! In the coming month, Apollo Go autonomous vehicles will be available via the @Uber app, starting in the Jumeirah area, in partnership with Dubai's @rta_dubai. Riders may be matched with a fully driverless Apollo Go vehicle when booking UberX, Uber Comfort, or by choosing the "Autonomous" option. So… ready for your next Uber ride to be driverless? 👀

Great work to the @RebeccaTinucci and the team - one stop amongst many to come. We are building the worlds biggest first, middle and last mile 3P logistics platform based entirely on new tech and @UberFreight is a hugely important part of that vision.
Rebecca Tinucci@RebeccaTinucci

As reported in @Uber earnings today, I’m proud to say that @UberFreight achieved breakeven in Q4 on an adjusted EBITDA basis, after 3+ years of losses. We’re just at the starting line - with a ton of work left to do for our customers - but we’re getting there! Now back to work…

We are big believers in @RaquelUrtasun @lioron and the Waabi team - excited about expanding our partnership!
Waabi@Waabi_ai

Today, we are thrilled to announce that we have raised $1B USD of new capital to accelerate commercial progress in autonomous trucks and expand to robotaxis! For the first time in the industry, this enables one shared brain to power both applications—trucks and robotaxis. This means any progress in one vertical directly improves the other. This funding includes an oversubscribed $750M Series C round led by @khoslaventures and @G2VPLLC, as well as additional capital from @Uber tied to robotaxi development. We are excited to work with Uber to deploy 25,000 or more Waabi Driver-powered robotaxis on the Uber platform, substantially accelerating the adoption of robotaxis at scale. Thank you to our incredible team, investors, partners, and customers for helping us achieve this milestone. Here's to pioneering the future of Physical AI, together.
