The programme will use a Stellantis midsize van based on the L4-Ready Platform, with all three partners targeting driverless readiness by programme end.<\/p>\n<p>Assessment covers safety, performance and regulatory readiness using Pony.ai\u2019s seventh-generation vehicles on Luxembourgish roads. The Living Lab approach tests the full operational stack: vehicle deployment, ride-hailing integration, fleet operations and regulatory coordination, ahead of broader European rollout.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-468679\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/stellantis-bolt-ponyai-luxembourg-1024x669.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"669\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>The three-way partnership combines Bolt\u2019s ride-hailing marketplace, Pony.ai\u2019s autonomous driving technology and Stellantis\u2019 vehicle engineering capability. Luxembourg\u2019s regulatory environment has been cited by the partners as a key enabler, as Europe\u2019s autonomous mobility sector works to translate technology advances into commercial operations.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, Markus Villig, Founder and Chief Executive of Bolt, said: \u201cAutonomous mobility technology is already transforming transportation around the world, and as the only independent, European-founded ride-hailing platform competing globally, we want to be at the forefront of scaling this revolutionary technology in Europe. We welcome Luxembourg\u2019s progressive approach to testing this technology and we are excited to work closely with our European partner Stellantis, and global software leader Pony.ai to launch further pilots in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.media.stellantis.com\/em-en\/corporate\/press\/bolt-pony-ai-and-stellantis-to-launch-autonomous-mobility-testing-program-in-luxembourg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Stellantis<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Luxembourg offers a regulatory testbed for an alliance that could define how ride-hailing scales autonomous driving in Europe&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8143,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[5,2281],"class_list":["post-8142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-luxembourg","tag-luxembourg","tag-stellantis"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@lu\/116719009407465768","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8142\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
