Pony.ai has received a license<\/a> to operate its autonomous taxi service in China, making it the first company to win the country\u2019s approval (via Reuters<\/em><\/a>). Starting in May, the Toyota-backed<\/a> robotaxi service will operate 100 autonomous vehicles in the Nansha district of Guangzhou, and will later expand to serve other portions of the city.<\/p>\n

Pony.ai says riders can hail and pay for rides from the company\u2019s app between 8:30AM to 10:30PM, and that its fares will align with the \u201cstandard taxi pricing\u201d in Guangzhou. The autonomous vehicles will also have a driver present in the car for safety purposes, but plans to remove them over a \u201cshort to intermediate time frame.\u201d<\/p>\n

In November, the Chinese startup gained approval<\/a> \u2014 but not a license \u2014 to operate 67 vehicles in Beijing. It\u2019s also been working to establish a presence in the US, a prospect set back after one of its autonomous vehicles crashed in California<\/a>, resulting in its permit getting suspended. The company had been testing its vehicles in the state since 2017<\/a> and received a permit to operate its vehicles<\/a> without drivers last year. <\/p>\n

Pony.ai says it has completed over 700,000 trips since April 2022, and almost 80 percent of riders are repeat customers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
