With a presence in over 40 cities across 11 countries, WeRide is the most internationally deployed autonomous driving company. This strong global footprint supports its plan to expand its active Robotaxi fleet to more than 2,600 Robotaxis this year and tens of thousands by 2030.
Manufactured by Geely’s Zhejiang Farizon New Energy Commercial Vehicle Group (Geely Farizon), the Robotaxi GXR is designed for continuous commercial operation and plays a central role in the WeRide ecosystem. Earlier this month, WeRide and Geely Farizon signed an agreement to deliver 2,000 upgraded purpose-built, mass-produced Robotaxi GXRs by 2026. With current hardware costs at approximately US$40,000 per vehicle, the new model has the potential to reduce vehicle costs by another 15% as fleet size increases.
“Farizon highly recognizes WeRide as a global technology leader in L4 autonomous driving. The two parties will further deepen the cooperation to accelerate the factory-integrated mass production and deployment of the Robotaxi GXR, jointly opening a new chapter in the large-scale global commercialization of autonomous driving,” said Mike Fan, CEO of Farizon New Energy Commercial Vehicle Group.
WeRide will be exhibiting the Robotaxi GXR at booth #9007 during GTC 2026. In addition, WeRide’s Senior Vice President, Dr. Hua Zhong, will be delivering a talk covering how WeRide's end-to-end model enables the massive deployment from L2 to L4, powered by NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin and Thor.
