Lyft is partnering with Baidu to introduce Apollo Go robotaxis in Europe, beginning with the UK and Germany in 2026. The collaboration aims to deploy thousands of self-driving vehicles across the continent, contingent on regulatory approvals. Baidu, known for its autonomous driving technology, first launched Apollo Go in 2020, offering ride-hailing in 11 Chinese cities. The partnership is part of Lyft's strategy to enhance its European presence and is expected to provide users with safer and more efficient transportation solutions, alongside benefits like privacy and reliability.
By integrating Baidu's cutting-edge autonomous driving technology with Lyft's platform reach and operational expertise, we're excited to deliver safer, greener, and more efficient mobility solutions to more users.
The partnership will bring the benefits of autonomous vehicles, such as safety, reliability, and privacy, to millions of Europeans.
Apollo Go provides autonomous ride-hailing services in 11 Chinese cities, with plans to expand to Europe by 2026.
A 10-kilometre Apollo Go ride in Wuhan city costs between 4 and 16 Chinese yuan, or $0.60 to $2.20.
