This collaboration marks a shift from a product-level partnership to an integrated ecosystem, with plans for accelerated rollout across key markets including China, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Europe. WeRide expects its global operating Robotaxi fleet to surpass 2,600 vehicles this year, moving towards a vision of tens of thousands by 2030.
