L4 autonomous driving for robotaxi services

DiDi Autonomous Driving integrates Level 4 autonomous driving into DiDi’s shared ride-hailing and logistics networks. It uses a complete hardware–software stack, including its Orca computing platform and Beiyao Beta LiDAR, to power robotaxi services and autonomous trucking via Kargobot; revenue comes from robotaxi fares and logistics services. It works by combining self-driving vehicles and human-driven cars in a hybrid dispatch system within the DiDi app, deploying robotaxi fleets in cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou and partnering with automakers such as GAC Group, Volvo, and a joint venture with GAC Aion to mass-produce autonomous vehicles. Its goal is to scale commercialization of autonomous mobility and freight services through deep platform integration, automaker partnerships, and large-scale operations.
