BEIJING (dpa-AFX) - Friday, Baidu, Inc. (BIDU) announced an upgrade to its
autonomous ride-hailing service platform Apollo Go.

Under this, Baidu will provide 24/7 autonomous driving services in selected
areas of Wuhan, making it the first in China to offer such a service.

This marks the third operational expansion of the company's Robotaxi service in

Earlier, on February 27, 2024, Apollo Go launched fully driverless rides across
the Yangtze River Bridge, and on February 23, 2024, Apollo Go launched
driverless airport transportation services in Beijing, as Baidu was approved for
robotaxi pilot operation on highways to Beijing Daxing Airport.

With over 5 million cumulative rides as of January 2024, Apollo Go currently
offers robotaxi services in over 10 cities in China.
