Lyft has expressed intentions to introduce self-driving robotaxis in Dallas by 2026, following eight years of striving to deploy autonomous vehicles. Although prior initiatives faced setbacks, Lyft's current collaboration with Marubeni signifies a more credible approach. The rideshare company plans to capitalize on existing advancements in self-driving technology. While Lyft's website offers vague assertions regarding the future of transportation, recent developments suggest that practical implementations may soon begin, with hopes for expansion beyond Dallas as well.
Eight years after Lyft's first claim about self-driving cars, they announce that robotaxis may be coming to Dallas as early as 2026, following an ongoing trend.
Lyft has been promising self-driving vehicles since 2017, but their latest claims are deemed plausible due to advancements in automation by other companies.
CEO Davis Risher indicated that Lyft's robotaxis will utilize Marubeni's cars with Mobileye technology, potentially launching a fleet in Dallas next year.
Despite vague promotional content on their website about autonomous services, Lyft's partnership with Marubeni suggests more definitive plans for future implementation.
