On Wednesday, ride-hailing giant Uber EV maker Lucid and self-driving technology start-up Nuro announced plans to launch robo-taxis in Houston in 2027. Uber operates the network, Lucid builds the cars, and Nuro provides the autonomous driving technology. The move is yet another example that the long-promised era of driverless cars has arrived.

Uber and Lucid are expanding their robotaxi venture, naming Houston as the second planned market for the autonomous ride-hailing service the two companies are building with self-driving startup Nuro.
WeRide (NASDAQ:WRD) and Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) plan to introduce commercial robotaxi services in the Greater Zurich Region later this year, extending their autonomous mobility partnership in Europe following a recent deployment announcement in Madrid. The service is expected to launch during 2026, pending approval from Switzerland’s Federal Roads Office (FEDRO).
This will be the second market to have an Uber robotaxi service outfitted with Lucid EVs equipped with a self-driving system from Nuro.
The company disclosed two separate updates on Wednesday regarding its plans to scale its robotaxi services internationally.
