BEIJING (Reuters) -Chinese autonomous driving firm Pony.ai has been granted the first citywide permit for driverless commercial robotaxi operations in the city of Shenzhen in southern China, it said on Friday.
The permit was jointly granted to Pony.ai and the city’s largest taxi operator Xihu Group, the company said in a statement.
The driverless robotaxi operations would begin in Shenzhen’s Nanshan, Qianhai and Baoan areas, before expanding citywide, the company said.
