Uber Technologies and Momenta announced a strategic agreement to introduce autonomous vehicles to the Uber platform, in international markets outside of the US and China.

First deployment for the partnership will take place in Europe at the beginning of 2026, with onboard safety operators. By combining Uber’s ridesharing network with Momenta’s autonomous driving technology, the two companies aim to accelerate and deliver safe, scalable, and efficient Robotaxi services.

Momenta has developed what it calls is a scalable path toward full autonomous driving by combining a data-driven approach with iterating algorithms—referred to as its “flywheel approach”—as well as a “two-leg” product strategy focusing on both Mpilot, its mass-production-ready assisted driving solutions, and MSD (Momenta Self-Driving), its driving solution targeting full autonomy. Momenta holds extensive knowledge and experience from not only Robotaxi testing but also operation in multiple cities in China.
