I am proud to share the results of a great collaboration with Ingrid Skogsmo, Pony.ai, and Zeekr Technology Europe now published in the report “Learning from the Deployment of Robotaxis at Scale.” This project was funded by Vinnova in conjunction with Future Mobility.

We discuss large-scale robotaxi operations, primarily in California and China, and point out the lessons learned that should help greatly to anticipate future deployments in other places (Europe and Sweden in particular) in the pursuit of sustainability, safety, and equality. All this is easier said than done, which we realized in several cases and write about in the report.

The insights should be of interest to anyone in automated driving, shared mobility, public transport, policy development, or industry strategies.

I look forward to your thoughts and feedback. Feel free to comment or reach out directly if you’d like to discuss the findings and their implications.
