Uber has picked San Francisco to launch a premium robotaxi service that will use Lucid Motors’ all-electric Gravity SUVs equipped with self-driving tech developed by Nuro, in 2026 — a move that puts the ride-hailing giant in direct competition with Waymo.

Stellantis says “start of production” for these new vehicles is slated for 2028. Uber will deploy the robotaxis in multiple markets globally, starting first in the US with 5,000 vehicles. No other details have been provided about specific cities or deadlines.
