Saudi Arabia Launches Its First Robotaxi Pilot as WeRide Expands into Another Global Market

WeRide (NASDAQ: WRD), a global leader in autonomous driving technology, has launched Saudi Arabia’s first Robotaxi pilot service in Riyadh. This is currently the only Robotaxi pilot in Saudi Arabia and comes less than two months after WeRide announced its market entry in May — underscoring the company’s rapid execution and leadership in global Robotaxi commercialization.

The pilot will be conducted under the Transport General Authority’s (TGA) oversight, operating on public roads and covering King Khalid International Airport and several key core areas in Riyadh, including major highways and selected city center destinations. The Robotaxi vehicles, provided by WeRide, will be available through the Uber platform, with the first batch consisting of dozens of vehicles.

Riyadh marks WeRide's third market partnership with Uber, following successful deployments in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Full commercial services are expected on the Uber platform at the end of 2025.

This pilot is a key milestone for WeRide’s expansion in Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East. It aligns with the Kingdom’s National Transport and Logistics Strategy and Vision 2030, delivering safer, smarter, and more sustainable mobility solutions.

WeRide played a central role in making the pilot possible — leading initial regulatory engagement, registering Saudi Arabia’s first Robotaxi, overseeing localization and model training, and integrating services with the Uber app — showcasing its technical agility and execution capabilities in global markets.

In May 2025, WeRide officially announced its entry into into Saudi Arabia, launching the testing and operations of its autonomous driving products. This included ground preparation for its Robotaxi service, with TGA’s support, ahead of the pilot phase.

In the same month, WeRide deployed the Robobus across several locations, including King Fahad Medical City, Aramco residential communities, AlUla, and the Ritz-Carlton, Riyadh. It also deployed the Robosweeper S1 in King Fahad Medical City — marking the first monetized autonomous sanitation project in both Saudi Arabia and the Middle East.
