Robo taxi, or robo cab, refers to a self-driving autonomous vehicle, which is operated by on-demand mobility or e-taxi service providers. It requires minimal or no human intervention for driving and the passengers can request for the taxi through a smartphone application. It operates through Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) platforms and offers a safe, convenient and cost-effective mode of transportation. Robo taxis are equipped with cameras, radio detection and ranging (RADAR) and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems and smart ultrasonic sensors to operate smoothly, prevent collisions, reduce fatalities and facilitate vehicle management. They usually have electric, hybrid and fuel cell propulsion systems and can be used for the transportation of both passengers and material goods.
Robo Taxi Market Trends:
- Significant growth in the automotive industry across the globe is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the increasing demand for self-driving and autonomous vehicles is providing a thrust to the market growth. The rising levels of traffic and greenhouse gas emissions are also impacting the demand for robo taxis. Robo taxis operate through electric and fuel cell-based technologies, which are highly fuel-efficient and emission-free. They are also equipped with advanced technologies to detect objects or obstacles in the way and sense the speed of nearby vehicles to ensure road safety and prevent accidents. Additionally, the implementation of favorable government policies promoting the development of smart cities and sustainable infrastructural expansion, especially in the developing economies, is contributing to the market growth. Other factors, including shifting consumer preference from vehicle ownership to shared mobility solutions, along with extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
