Pony AI (PONY) is accelerating its global expansion with a strategic partnership to deploy robotaxis in Qatar, marking a key milestone in the company's ambitious rollout of autonomous vehicles across the Middle East. Earlier this week, Pony AI announced a partnership with Mowasalat (Karwa), Qatar's largest transportation provider, to test robotaxis on Doha's public roads.
This collaboration follows Pony AI's existing presence in Dubai and is a key step toward the company's "autonomous mobility everywhere" vision. The initial testing phase includes safety operators as the technology adapts to Qatar's unique driving conditions, weather patterns, and infrastructure.
