WeRide plans 7,000-10,000 robotaxis in Saudi Arabia by 2030
WeRide plans to deploy between 7,000 and 10,000 autonomous taxis in Saudi Arabia by the end of the decade, expanding beyond its Riyadh airport launch last year. The rollout will move into central Riyadh around Olaya and add a Qiddiya project next year, with driverless trials extended to Uber passengers. Saudi aims for 15% autonomy by 2030, while customers generally respond positively despite occasional location-accuracy frustration.
