Rivian has demonstrated a working autonomous driving system through exclusive demos with partners and investors, including Uber CFO Balaji Krishnamurthy. The EV startup's Autonomy+ system shows significant progress toward Level 4 autonomy, supporting Uber's plan for 50,000 R2 robotaxis by 2030, with a broad rollout targeted for 2027.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Rivian's autonomy progress creates new openings for founders in robotaxi and urban mobility services to prepare for a surge in fully driverless EV fleets starting in 2027. You must act now to position your software or services as the go-to partner for fleet operators moving from pilot to scale.
