> The company expects about 700 on its platform by year-end 2026, with Zoox and Motional planned for Las Vegas and a Bay Area launch targeted for early 2027.

Uber expects more than 2,000 fully driverless vehicles on its platform by the end of 2027, setting a fleet target as its partners move toward commercial service.

The company also expects about 700 fully driverless vehicles on its platform by year-end 2026. Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi announced the targets Wednesday, Nov. 4, describing a shift toward commercial execution as partners move from development and testing into driverless service.

“Our autonomous strategy is entering an important new phase as more of our partners move from development and testing into driverless commercial service,” Khosrowshahi said.

Uber expects Zoox to join its app in Las Vegas in November, followed by Motional moving to fully driverless operations. Riders in Las Vegas would be the first in a U.S. city to have two fully driverless partners available through Uber’s app.

Uber expects fully driverless testing with Nuro and Lucid in the fourth quarter of 2026, ahead of a fully driverless commercial launch in the Bay Area in the first quarter of 2027. Houston and other cities are expected to follow.

The vehicle-count target adds a fleet measure to Uber’s [previously announced goal of offering autonomous rides in as many as 15 cities by year-end 2026](<https://www.tokenpost.com/news/business/34003>). CFO Balaji Krishnamurthy said Uber was working on ways to finance autonomous vehicles and related infrastructure with third-party capital. More details are expected in coming months.
