Pony.ai and Uber plan to expand their robotaxi operations across Europe with a target fleet size exceeding 2,000 SAE Level 4 autonomous vehicles, starting from their first commercial deployment in Zagreb and involving local partners for fleet operations.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility, and 24 sources have reported it between 14 Aug 2026 and 19 Aug 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to revisit your European market plans as large-scale robotaxi fleets will soon start competing directly in key cities with Uber's booking power and Pony.ai's autonomous tech. Local operators are now viable partners or competitors in urban mobility fleets.
