#Uber has committed nearly $500 million to self-driving startup #Nuro, as part of a three-way partnership with #Lucid to deploy 35,000 #robotaxis. This includes a previously unreported follow-on investment and additional funding tied to development milestones, such as testing without a driver and carrying passengers. The funding provides crucial support for Nuro as it works to commercialise its self-driving technology. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/ubers-commitment-self-driving-startup-nuro-is-close-500-mln-sources-say-2026-06-03/?eicker.news #tech #media #news

Nuro, a company previously focused on autonomous delivery, is now entering the highly competitive robotaxi market. Co-founder Dave Ferguson argues that being a 'second mover' is actually a strategic advantage, allowing them to learn from early players' mistakes, utilize cheaper, more reliable tech, and potentially achieve an 80% system cost reduction compared to competitors.
