London's fully driverless RoboTaxi rollout is delayed, with Waymo, Wayve, and Baidu now unlikely to launch commercial services this year due to regulatory and technical barriers. The government’s ambitious schedule faces challenges typical of regulatory readiness rather than technology capability.

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

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Regulators are the bottleneck, not technology, in UK RoboTaxi launches. You should plan for delayed market entry but prepare to enter with a supervised service approach in the near term.
