Hesai Technology’s (HSAI) lidar solution has been selected by WeRide (WRD) to power its autonomous vehicles, which will begin operating on Uber Technologies’ (UBER) platform in Dubai as part of the city’s 2030 smart mobility initiative. Each of the autonomous vehicles will be equipped with four Hesai automotive-grade long-range lidars. Dubai aims to transform 25% of all journeys in the city into autonomous trips across various transport modes by 2030. WeRide’s latest launch in Dubai follows its robotaxi launch in Abu Dhabi in 2021. Hesai and WeRide have been collaborating since 2019, when Hesai’s lidars were integrated into the first batch of WeRide’s autonomous driving fleets for road testing and operations.
