It says that over the next 10 years the combination of Waabi tech and Uber trucks will gather data from billions of kilometres of driving. The two are already running shipping routes in Texas between Dallas and Houston, with plans to expand in the state and beyond.Along with investments from Uber, the company earlier this year also attracted a strategic investment from Volvo Group.
