Yes, Uber has invested in WeRide. In May 2025, Uber committed an additional $100 million equity investment in Chinese autonomous driving company WeRide, specifically to support an expanded robotaxi partnership covering 15 more cities globally over the next five years[2][3][4]. This capital commitment is on top of an existing investment, although the precise details of Uber’s previous investment in WeRide have not been publicly detailed[3].
The partnership, which began in 2024, involves integrating WeRide’s robotaxi services into the Uber app, with Uber handling network routing and fleet operations while WeRide provides the autonomous vehicle technology[2][3]. The investment is expected to close in the second half of 2025 and represents Uber’s largest investment in autonomous driving to date[3].
