Waabi Raises $1 Billion and Partners with Uber to Enter Robotaxi Market
Canadian autonomous driving startup Waabi has secured $1 billion in funding, including $750 million in Series C capital and a $250 million partnership commitment from Uber. Originally focused on self-driving trucks, Waabi is now expanding into robotaxis, with plans to deploy 25,000 vehicles exclusively on Uber’s platform. The move follows Waabi’s strategy of using an AI-first approach to autonomous mobility and reaffirms its ambition to commercialize self-driving solutions at scale.
This landmark investment signals growing confidence in AI-driven autonomous transport and marks a key milestone in the robotaxi race.
