Pony AI Robotaxi integrates into Tencent's mobility service

On March 13, Pony AI $Pony AI (PONY.US)$ officially announced its integration into the 'Tencent Mobility Service' mini-program. Starting today, within the operational area in Guangzhou, users can hail autonomous vehicles via this mini-program to experience safe and convenient mobility services. Additionally, this service will soon be available in the Tencent Maps app. This collaboration marks another significant step for Pony AI $PONY-W (02026.HK)$ in advancing the commercial scalability of L4 autonomous driving. Since signing a strategic cooperation agreement with Tencent Cloud in April 2025, both parties have continued to deepen their partnership, dedicated to optimizing the autonomous driving travel experience. Currently, users can access the service by searching for 'Tencent Mobility Service' or through the 'Mobility Service' entry within the WeChat app. When the user’s trip origin and destination are near a designated Pony AI pick-up point, they can select the autonomous driving option to experience autonomous rides provided by Pony AI. This partnership highlights the deep integration of autonomous driving technology capabilities with the extensive traffic flow of an internet technology platform ecosystem. Since launching the earliest autonomous driving mobility service in the country in 2018, Pony AI has continuously ensured the safety and reliability of its autonomous driving services through leading autonomous driving technology, a mature and stable fleet operation system, and standardized services. Tencent Cloud, on the other hand, has opened up entry resources from 'Mobility Services' within WeChat and Tencent Maps, as well as the platform’s massive traffic, providing an important channel for Pony AI’s autonomous driving mobility services to reach a large base of monthly active users...

This collaboration marks another significant step for Pony AI $PONY-W (02026.HK)$ in advancing the large-scale commercial implementation of L4 autonomous driving. Since Pony AI signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Tencent Cloud in April 2025, both parties have continued to deepen their cooperation, aiming to optimize the autonomous driving travel experience.
Currently, users can access the service by searching for 'Tencent Mobility Services' or through the 'Mobility Services' entry within the WeChat app. When the start and end points of a user’s trip are near a designated stop operated by Pony AI, they can select the autonomous driving option and experience autonomous driving travel services provided by Pony AI.
The partnership exemplifies the deep integration of autonomous driving technology capabilities with the massive traffic ecosystem of internet technology platforms. Since launching the earliest autonomous driving mobility service domestically in 2018, Pony AI has consistently ensured the safety and reliability of its autonomous driving services through its leading autonomous driving technology, a mature and stable fleet operation system, and standardized service protocols. Meanwhile, Tencent Cloud provides Pony AI's autonomous driving mobility services access to a vast number of monthly active users by opening up entry resources within WeChat’s 'Mobility Services' and Tencent Maps, along with leveraging the platform’s enormous traffic. This collaboration will significantly improve user reach efficiency while laying a solid foundation for large-scale autonomous driving operations.

Since its launch in Guangzhou in 2017, Pony AI has becomea key promoter and popularizer of driverless mobility services in Guangzhou。
Pony AI was the first company in Guangzhou to launch autonomous driving mobility services in the Nansha District, and by early 2024, it pioneered an autonomous driving shuttle service connecting central Guangzhou to major hubs like Baiyun Airport and Guangzhou South Railway Station. In December 2025, Pony AI launched autonomous driving mobility services on the Guangzhou University City campus, quickly gaining widespread recognition and adoption among young users, with each vehicle averaging 23 daily orders.
Pony AI has already commenced unmanned driving service operations in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, managing over a thousand autonomous driving vehicles, and establishing deep partnerships with numerous domestic and international collaborators to build an autonomous driving mobility ecosystem.
Domestic partnersinclude mobility platforms such as Tencent Cloud, Alipay, Gaode Taxi, West Lake Taxis, Sunshine Mobility, Ruqi Mobility, and Jinjiang Taxis.
International marketsDeep cooperation with global partners such as Stellantis, Uber, Bolt, Singapore's ComfortDelGro, and Luxembourg's Emile Weber is driving the expansion of its global business footprint.
In the future, Pony AI will continue to deepen its collaboration with Tencent Cloud in areas such as cloud services, map data, information security, and smart cockpit ecosystems. At the same time, it will keep partnering with more industry ecosystem players, automakers, and mobility platforms to build an open and collaborative autonomous driving industrial ecosystem. This will promote the coverage of autonomous driving services across more cities and scenarios, allowing more users to experience technology-enabled mobility solutions.
