Uber is bringing robotaxi services to the UK, with self-driving cars planned to be available in London during the summer. The service uses an all-electric vehicle platform based on the Ford Mustang Mach-E. Uber says the robotaxi is designed in collaboration with Wayve, a company focused on autonomous driving technology. The vehicle is equipped with a suite of sensing hardware, including surround cameras and radar, intended to support navigation and safety monitoring. Multiple reports describe the same core configuration: an electric Ford Mustang Mach-E outfitted for autonomous operation, using computer vision and radar-based sensing as part of its system. The announcements focus on the planned launch window for London rather than providing detailed information on routes, driverless coverage limits, or regulatory staging. Overall, sources agree that the UK rollout is tied to Uber’s robotaxi program and that the cars are set to begin operating in London over the summer.
