Many EV fanatics look forward to Tesla’s Robotaxi service. For some people, it’s a big deal because they put in for a dozen Cybertrucks and hope to run their own fleet. For others, they think it will transform urban and suburban mobility. For Tesla itself, it could open up a new revenue stream for Full Self Driving. Tesla wins either way, because they could field their own vehicles or field customer-owned vehicles.
The Volkswagen Group is progressing its transformation into a mobility provider and has partnered with car sharing company MILES Mobility. To do this, MILES Mobility acquired UMI Urban Mobility International GmbH from Volkswagen Passenger Cars. This gives them the WeShare car sharing business which they will integrate into their existing portfolio.
Both parties have agreed to not reveal the purchase amount. Furthermore, as part of the new partnership, MILES has ordered more than 10,000 all-electric vehicles from Audi, Seat/Cupra and Volkswagen Passenger Cars brands–slated for delivery starting 2023. By doing this, Volkswagen can take advantage of the rapidly growing market for new mobility services while giving its customers plenty of choice.
Smart of vw. Without a partnership they'll be out of business very soon
So now Tesla has millions of vehicles on the rode in many countries. Thousands of charging points and Tesla also has rental car companies with hundreds of Tesla vehicles already to go autonomous. So... do some talk. We can do better.
