Bolt and Lucid Motors have entered a strategic partnership to deploy a fleet of autonomous robotaxis across Europe. The initiative aims to introduce at least 25,000 self-driving Lucid vehicles, which will be accessible via the Bolt app. The fleet is intended to meet SAE Level 4 autonomy standards, utilizing NVIDIA’s Hyperion computing architecture and Alpamayo software stack.

Initial plans involve launching a program in Madrid in 2027, pending regulatory approval, to collect real-world driving data. Following this, Bolt intends to expand operations into Germany, France, and Luxembourg. While specific launch dates and exact order volumes remain subject to finalization, Bolt has established a long-term objective to operate 100,000 autonomous vehicles on its platform by 2035.
