Uber and British technology company Wayve are launching London's first self-driving taxi service on Thursday, bringing robotaxis to the city as Europe takes a more cautious approach to autonomous passenger vehicles than the United States and China.
The service will initially use fewer than 20 Ford Mustang Mach-E electric vehicles fitted with Wayve's autonomous driving technology, with plans to expand the fleet, Uber's head of autonomous mobility, Sarfraz Maredia, said.
