Lyft also announced a partnership with Intel-owned Mobileye that will allow certain AV tech-equipped vehicles to tap into the ride-hailing app as well as a data-sharing agreement with Nexar that\u2019s designed to give OEMs and operators better insights to train autonomous driving systems.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t Lyft\u2019s first time delving into autonomous vehicles. The company previously provided a robotaxi service \u2014 always with a human safety driver behind the wheel \u2014 in Las Vegas via a partnership with Motional. It had a similar agreement in Austin and Miami with Argo AI. However, Motional paused that partnership in May after slashing its workforce, and Argo AI shut down in 2022. Lyft had a stake in Argo, and took a $135.7 million hit when the company folded.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uber, meanwhile, has been busy snatching up deals with top AV companies across the robotaxi, delivery, and freight industry, including Waymo, Cruise, Avride, Serve Robotics, Aurora Innovation, Waabi, and more.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-may-mobility-lyft-starting-in-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"May_Mobility_Lyft_starting_in_2025\"><\/span><strong>May Mobility + Lyft, starting in 2025<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">May Mobility has made a name for itself rolling out autonomous micro-transit services mainly in geofenced areas around the U.S. The startup\u2019s shuttles operate within campuses and to designated stops along fixed routes in cities like Ann Arbor, Michigan, Arlington, Virginia, Peachtree Corners in Atlanta, Miami, and Sun City, Arizona. In May 2023, May Mobility launched an on-demand service in <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/maymobility.com\/locations\/grand-rapids-minnesota\/\">Grand Rapids<\/a>, Michigan in partnership with Via.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPartnering with Lyft will open up new markets for us to operate in, granting greater mobility to more people, more quickly,\u201d said Edwin Olson, co-founder and CEO of May Mobility, in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The multi-year Lyft partnership is May\u2019s first foray into ride-hail. May Mobility and Lyft didn\u2019t say when the AVs will be deployed, how many of May\u2019s Toyota Sienna Autono-MaaS vehicles will hit the streets, or whether May will provide pooled rides and shuttles, or individual on-demand transit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement, May did note that initial deployments will use safety drivers in the front seat, with plans to transition to fully driverless over time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-creating-a-lyft-ready-mobileye-network-nbsp\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_%E2%80%98Lyft-ready_Mobileye_network\"><\/span><strong>Creating a \u2018Lyft-ready\u2019 Mobileye network\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mobileye offers self-driving <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> across the spectrum of autonomy, from Level 2 advanced driver assistance systems to fully autonomous Level 4 systems. Mobileye Drive, the company\u2019s L4 system, consists of everything from the self-driving software to the sensor stack to a cloud infrastructure with a digital twin of the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe next step for us is to use this Mobileye Drive cloud, or the demand gateway as we call it, to connect into the different ride-hailing, ride-pooling, and public transportation networks of the world,\u201d Christian Lichtmannecker, head of AV at Mobileye\u2019s Mobility-as-a-Service business development unit, told TechCrunch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, any fleet of vehicles that already has Mobileye Drive onboard \u2013 which today includes certain Volkswagen, Schaeffler, and Benteler Holon models \u2013 will be able to plug into the Lyft network in the future. Lichtmannecker said this allows both small and large fleet operators to get seamless access to Lyft\u2019s platform and network of riders.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLyft\u2019s aim is to connect AVs, drivers, riders, and partners to create new opportunities for all,\u201d Lyft CEO David Risher said in a statement. \u201cOur rideshare network will continue to evolve as millions of people will have the opportunity to earn billions of dollars whether they choose to drive, put their AVs into service, or both.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Neither Lyft nor Mobileye shared when or where the first Mobileye-powered vehicles would show up on the Lyft app, but Lichtmannecker noted the two are in talks with operating and OEM partners today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mobileye is testing its Drive technology in Austin, Detroit, and Orlando, Florida. The company is also testing how its technology handles extreme weather conditions in Norway, Germany, and Israel.\u00a0Mobileye currently tests with a safety driver behind the wheel, and plans to remove the driver once it validates the safety of its technology.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bringing-nexar-smart-dashcam-insights-to-av-development\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bringing_Nexar_smart_dashcam_insights_to_AV_development\"><\/span><strong>Bringing Nexar smart dashcam insights to AV development<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nexar over the last few years has used video data from its line of smart dashcams to scale a digital twin service that it sells to automotive OEMs and cities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, Nexar and Lyft think that by combining forces, they\u2019ll be able to give OEMS and AV companies even better insights.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two companies will pair Nexar\u2019s over 45 petabytes of real-world footage spanning 200 million miles driven monthly with Lyft\u2019s historical and freshly anonymized and aggregated marketplace data to create \u201ca comprehensive and robust dataset for AV technology development.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lyft and Nexar did not share how they plan to share revenue in this partnership. The companies also didn\u2019t say whether Lyft will offer Nexar dashcams at a discount to Lyft drivers or even give drivers a cut for collecting data on the company\u2019s behalf, though a Nexar spokesperson said drivers need to agree to participate. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The deal comes just a couple of months after Zach Greenberger left his role as chief business officer at Lyft to become the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/data.getnexar.com\/blog\/a-new-chapter-from-lyft-to-nexar\/#:~:text=I%20am%20Zach%20Greenberger%2C%20former,Let's%20get%20to%20work!\">CEO of Nexar<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
