WeRide, Uber and AVOMO to launch Spain's first commercial robotaxi pilot
WeRide, Uber and AVOMO on June 2 announced the launch of Spain's first commercial robotaxi pilot in the Region of Madrid, in collaboration with Madrid's regional government, with rides booked through the Uber app and AVOMO running fleet operations on WeRide's autonomous-driving platform. Service is slated to start later in 2026 with trained vehicle operators and scale toward fully driverless commercial coverage of central urban areas; Madrid is the fourth of 15 cities under WeRide and Uber's broader partnership, with 11 more planned by 2030.
