Pony AI Inc. announced on July 25, 2025, the commencement of around-the-clock Robotaxi operation in the Chinese megacities of Guangzhou and Shenzhen. This move significantly expands the company's Robotaxi operation window from 15 hours a day to full 24/7 availability, marking a major step forward in its China development.
The initiative builds on Pony AI's extensive operational foundation, with over 50 million kilometers of global autonomous testing covering a wide range of traffic and lighting conditions. The company's proprietary autonomous driving system, its 'virtual driver,' has logged more than 500,000 hours of driverless operation, achieving a safety record up to ten times safer than human drivers.
At the core of Pony AI's sensing and perception capabilities is a multi-sensor fusion architecture integrating high-performance 128-beam LiDAR, 8-megapixel cameras, and 4D imaging millimeter-wave radar, delivering real-time, 360-degree perception even in low-light or nighttime settings. This capability, combined with a proprietary sensor self-cleaning system, ensures reliability in harsh conditions and supports the company's commitment to accelerating the commercial viability of Robotaxi services.
