Hyundai Motor Co. is partnering with Texas-based startup Avride to enter the robotaxi business.
Hyundai and Avride plan to launch an autonomous ride-hailing service in Texas using all-electric Hyundai IONIQ 5 SUVs.
The Hyundai IONIQ 5 is a Level 4 autonomous vehicle certified by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Hyundai's IONIQ 5 robotaxis will be integrated with Avride's autonomous driving technology and will be available for rides through the Uber app in Dallas.
