“#Uber in talks to sell its autonomous vehicle business: report<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Uber may be close to waving the white flag on its autonomous driving ambitions.<\/p>\n

The ride-hail giant is reportedly in talks to sell its Advance Technologies Group \u2014 which has been beset by infighting and setbacks \u2014 to self-driving car startup Aurora.<\/p>\n

The talks have been ongoing since October, TechCrunch reports<\/a>, though there is no certainty a deal will be reached. Uber is also considering taking a stake in the new company if Aurora takes over ATG.<\/p>\n

Just last year, Uber\u2019s ATG had raised $1 billion at a $7.25 billion valuation. But the business arm has struggled to make meaningful advances, and faces intense competition from Alphabet-owned Waymo and App<\/a>le\u2019s autonomous vehicle efforts.<\/p>\n

Uber has of late been exploring options for ATG, a heavy cash burn machine, including seeking more outside investment as the pandemic has forced CEO Dara Khosrowshahi to focus on core businesses including ride-hailing and food delivery.<\/p>\n

ATG is still recovering from 2018 accident which saw a pedestrian killed by a self-driving Uber in Arizona, with some workers believing the division\u2019s renewed focus on safety is slowing down progress, according to a September report.<\/p>\n

Aurora is among dozens of startups, automakers and large technology<\/a> companies working on self-driving car systems, eager to capitalize on a sea change in the transportation industry.<\/p>\n

The startup, which is already testing its vehicles in the San Francisco Bay Area and Pittsburgh, in July said it was expanding testing and development of its vehicles to Dallas-Fort Worth Area in Texas.<\/p>\n

Shares of Uber were up 3.7 percent Monday morning, at $49.38.<\/p>\n

Uber and Aurora declined to comment.<\/p>\n
