Lucid and Bolt Plan 25,000 Robotaxis for Europe
Lucid and Bolt are partnering to deploy 25,000 Level 4 robotaxis in Europe using Nvidia-based software, with Bolt aiming to scale to 100,000 vehicles by 2035. This move allows Lucid to expand beyond its existing Uber and Nuro collaborations, though the announcement coincides with significant workforce reductions and production disruptions at the US manufacturer.
