Uber and autonomous-driving company Pony.ai plan to expand their European robotaxi partnership to a fleet of 2,000 vehicles, according to a report published on August 14, 2026.

The companies intend to move beyond their initial market in Zagreb, Croatia, and add four more European cities. The report did not identify the additional cities or give a deployment timetable.

The proposal would significantly widen the partnership’s European footprint, but it remains a plan rather than a completed rollout. Launches will depend on local operating arrangements and the rules governing autonomous passenger services in each market.
