Tensor Auto and Münchner Taxi Zentrum (MTZ) have signed a letter of intent to deploy up to 500 Tensor Robocars across German cities, pending regulatory approval for Level 4 autonomous driving. MTZ will operate the taxis under its brand, while Tensor will provide the vehicles and necessary software through a subscription model.
This initiative is significant as it aims to redefine urban mobility in Germany, with MTZ emphasizing the importance of maintaining customer relationships and ride data. The partnership also targets an ambitious goal of deploying an additional 10,000 Robocars with European fleet operators within 24 months of the vehicles' availability in Europe.
Tensor and MTZ have not disclosed a specific timeline for the first commercial deployment, as it hinges on final agreements and the necessary regulatory approvals from Germany for Level 4 autonomous operations.
