The funding allows Uber to transfer some of the substantial cost of developing self-driving cars onto outside investors.

That is likely to appease some investor concerns over Uber’s spending on the autonomous unit, which has topped US$1 billion since the program started in 2016.

Uber released its IPO filing this month and is preparing to launch is “roadshow,” when it will pitch its company prospective investors, the week of April 29, setting up for an early May debut on the New York Stock Exchange. As part of the deal, ATG becomes its own legal entity but remains under the control of Uber with its financial performance folded into Uber’s. A new ATG board will be formed, with six seats from Uber, one from SoftBank and one from Toyota. Eric Meyhofer, currently the head of ATG, will take the title of CEO and report to the new board.
