Beijing (Gasgoo)- On March 27, autonomous driving tech company Pony.ai received Shenzhen's first permit for a fully driverless commercial operation pilot in Nanshan District. This marks a significant milestone, allowing users in Shenzhen's core urban areas to hail a self-driving vehicle via the Pony.ai app or mini-program, with AI-powered "veteran drivers" handling the ride.
The company has already launched similar services in Beijing and Guangzhou, and the approval in Shenzhen further accelerates its autonomous mobility deployment.
Pony.ai's autonomous vehicle (Robotaxi) fleet in Shenzhen now covers key areas such as Qianhai, Bao'an District, Houhai in Nanshan, and Shenzhen Bay, with seamless access to major transportation hubs like Shenzhen Bao'an Airport and Shenzhen Bay Port. Operating daily from 7:30 AM to 10:00 PM, the service offers a reliable, all-weather mobility solution for users.
Pony.ai has been steadily expanding its autonomous driving footprint, now operating in major cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. As more urban residents embrace self-driving vehicles for daily commutes, public trust in the technology continues to grow.
To date, Pony.ai has accumulated nearly 45 million kilometers in autonomous road testing, including approximately 5 million kilometers under fully driverless conditions. With continuous technological advancements and large-scale deployment efforts, the company is paving the way for the future of autonomous transportation.
