Customers who request an UberX, Uber Comfort or Comfort Electric may be matched with one of Avride’s Hyundai Ioniq 5 robotaxis at no additional cost starting Wednesday, Uber said in a statement. A specialist will be on board to monitor trips behind the wheel at launch, it added, with plans to both expand the operating territory and go fully driverless in the future.
