WeRide Expands International Reach with Abu Dhabi Permit and Uber Partnership

WeRide has secured its first city-level fully driverless robotaxi permit in Abu Dhabi, supporting a fully driverless service through a partnership with Uber. The company is expanding internationally with new partnerships in Saudi Arabia and Switzerland. This regulatory approval outside the U.S. helps show the progress of self-driving services from trials to broader deployment. The agreement with Uber and entry into new regions give WeRide a wider geographic footprint to test commercial models across different environments.
