Lyft is teaming up with a trio of autonomous driving startups as it races to keep up with Uber, which has also struck a number of deals to put robotaxis on its platform. Today, the ridehail company said it was teaming up with three different autonomous driving companies: Mobileye, May Mobility, and Nexar.
” Lyft says it’s pioneering what it calls its “Lyft ready” turnkey solution for AV operators in which the company serves as a one-stop shop for a variety of autonomous services, depending on the locale. “Lyft’s aim is to connect AVs, drivers, riders and partners to create new opportunities for all,” Lyft CEO David Risher said in a statement.
