Fully driverless robotaxis have officially hit the road in China, making AutoX the first company in the world to offer a fleet of fully driver-free cars. The fleet is now operating in China’s Shenzhen. While they aren’t available for passengers yet, this is still an important move.

According to AutoX, the success stems from the fifth-generation autonomous driving system with two LiDAR sensors, blind spot sensing, and 4D radar sensors. The company said their robotaxis can even manage smaller objects on the road. AutoX also mentioned a platform that can handle everything, from U-turns to illegal packing.

The company robotaxis have been tested in various sites, including in California but according to AutoX, the large number of people commuting every day in China allowed it to refine the technology for autonomous cars.

Fully driverless robotaxis have not been very common. Regulations in many parts of the world are slow to adapt to them and the price of making these cars are high due to the expensive hardware.

AutoX has made a big step forward in making us closer to the future when drivers are no longer needed. Soon, the question you will ask yourself will be when you can board a robotaxis, not if.
