Autonomous-driving company Pony.ai and Toyota say they’re teaming up with the goal of one day cranking out a bunch of fully driverless robotaxis.
The two companies intend to kick off their partnership sometime this year with around $139 million in capital from GAC Toyota Motor Co. — a joint venture between Toyota China and GAC, a Chinese state-owned automaker.
The investment follows Toyota’s move to pump about $400 million into Pony back in 2020.
Toyota says it’ll give Pony an unspecified number of its EVs, while Pony will outfit them with autonomous-driving tech and the firm’s robotaxi network platform.
