The number has surpassed its US counterparts, with Alphabet's Waymo's Robotaxi fleet of about 800 vehicles.

Previously AutoX's Robotaxi fleet had been tested in the greater San Jose, California, area since 2016. Globally, AutoX is currently testing and deploying Robotaxi fleets in five cities, including San Francisco and China's megacities Shenzhen, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Beijing.

"We want to deploy the AutoX Robotaxi fleet in many cities to serve hundreds of millions of people, as well to improve and become a part of communities around the world. Cities such as San Francisco, Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Beijing are the launchpads for Robotaxis to transform people’s daily lives. And that’s just the beginning," Xiao said today.
