Uber and Cruise partner to introduce robot taxis

On August 22, Uber announced a partnership with Cruise, a subsidiary of the vehicle manufacturing company General Motors, to introduce self-driving cars to its app starting in 2025. Initially, the new feature will only be available in the city of San Francisco, in the United States.

The union between the two companies, which is expected to last several years, will allow users of the ride-hailing service to request trips using cars equipped with this technology.

However, this is not Uber's first foray into robot taxis. Since October 2023, the company has been offering this service in the city of Phoenix, Arizona, through its partnership with Waymo, the autonomous driving technology subsidiary of Alphabet – the conglomerate that owns Google.
