The program establishes an OEM-agnostic model designed to scale across vehicle platforms and urban markets. As one of Europe’s leading automotive hubs with dense city streets, high-speed road networks, and a structured German regulatory framework, Munich provides the right launch environment for commercially scalable autonomous mobility.<\/p>\n The collaboration aims to tackle the commercial-scale hurdle in robotaxi deployment. Autonomy has traditionally relied on custom vehicles, sensor arrays, and custom compute setups that are tough to commercialize broadly. Autobrains’ Agentic AI aims to flip that script, delivering solid, real-time decisions using standard car sensors and lean, accelerated compute that can roll out across any OEM platform.<\/p>\n \u201cAutonomous driving will not scale by relying on a single model to solve every driving scenario, It requires systems that can reason, adapt, and make decisions under uncertainty,\u201d said Igal Raichelgauz, Chief Executive Officer and Founder at Autobrains.<\/p>\n The deal brings three essential layers together for a scalable robotaxi launch. It includes Autobrains\u2019 Agentic AI autonomous driving technology, the NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion platform, and Uber\u2019s global mobility network and operational experience, the company noted.<\/p>\n \u201cWith Uber and NVIDIA, we are bringing this approach into autonomous ride-hailing – combining Agentic AI with the mobility platform and automotive compute needed to support scalable robotaxi operations across cities, vehicles, and real-world conditions,\u201d Raichelgauz added.<\/p>\n Uber\u2019s Robotaxi Expansion plans <\/p>\n Uber has been investing heavily in its robotaxi expansion plans. It has taken a path in which, rather than building its own autonomous vehicle technology, it has been integrating multiple autonomous vehicle producers into its platform.<\/p>\n Lucid-Uber-Nuro: the deal inked in mid 2025 got a huge boost in April this year when Uber said it would deploy 35,000 Lucid vehicles, including Gravity electric SUVs and Lucid\u2019s upcoming midsize platform, equipped with Nuro\u2019s \u201cNuro Driver\u201d autonomous system for a period of six years across dozens of international markets.<\/p>\n In April, Uber reportedly<\/a> announced a $10 billion commitment to the taxi segment, hinting at a major strategy shift.<\/p>\n What Retail Thinks About Uber <\/p>\n The retail sentiment surrounding the stock has remained \u2018bullish\u2019 amid \u2018high\u2019 message volumes over the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n One user on Stocktwits said Uber is the \u2018ASML\u2019 of robotaxi with zero risks.<\/p>\n Uber shares have declined by more than 12% year-to-date.<\/p>\n For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.<\/p>\n Read Next: Trump Says ‘Iran Really Wants To Make A Deal’\u2014 But BTC Is Still Down, Oil Is Still Up, And ETFs Are Still Bleeding<\/a><\/p>\n Chinmay Rautmare has no position in any of the stocks mentioned in this article.
