Lucid and Bolt Aims to Talk 25 Thousand Robots in Europe

Lucid Motors and Bolt Mobility make a ambious move against corruption in the cities of Europe. Two companies have made the business union picture to deploy at least 25 thousand robots across Europe. This partnership represents an important milestone in the real world application of autonomous vehicle technology.

The main components of the agreement are:

• Lucid will provide electric autonomous vehicles in the project; Bolt will manage operational infrastructure and passenger platform
• 25 thousand vehicle targets planned to spread to Europe’s main cities
• Companies will adopt a distribution strategy compatible with local regulations and security standards
• The first pilot zones are determined; the exact timeline has not yet been explained
• Project will integrate electrical transportation and artificial intelligence-based autonomous control systems

Lucid’s technological infrastructure and Bolt’s European market knowledge is the basis of this collaboration. Bolt has a strong position in the field of ride-sharing before, preparing to play a leading role in the transition to new generation mobility services. This step will be an important competition element against traditional taxi and ride-sharing services.

However, the success of the project depends on the preparation of legal frameworks and increasing the trust of the public autonomous vehicles. Companies seem to opt out of these challenges.
