Wayve and Uber have started public-road trials for fully autonomous Level 4 vehicles in London, making it the first such initiative in the UK.
The partnership will combine Wayve’s Embodied AI platform with Uber’s ride-hailing network, aiming to deploy AI Driver technology on London streets.
Trials are set to commence by spring 2026, with expectations of creating jobs and contributing significantly to the UK economy.
The UK’s diverse driving conditions will provide insights to enhance global scalability of autonomous systems, distinguishing it from US testing environments.
