Uber Technologies and Momenta have announced plans to test Level 4 autonomous vehicles in Germany next year. The collaboration will integrate Momenta’s advanced, AI-driven autonomous driving technology into Uber’s global platform, with the aim being to deliver safe, scalable and efficient robotaxi services.
Munich will be the starting point for Uber and Momenta’s Level 4 testing, with the companies stating they plan to then expand to other European cities.
“Testing L4 autonomous vehicles in Munich allows us to showcase how Momenta’s AI-driven robotaxi technology can transform urban mobility, as a new chapter in the region’s rich automotive heritage,” said Xudong Cao, CEO of Momenta.
“Germany has shaped the global automotive industry for more than a century, and now Munich will help shape the future with autonomous vehicles,” added Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO of Uber.
