Paris robotaxi consortium announced; no signatory yet operates vehicles day to day
On 23 October 2026, the Métropole du Grand Paris, Bolt and Stellantis unveiled a consortium to run autonomous vehicles in the Paris metropolitan area. Testing is planned to start in 2028 in up to five north-western municipalities, with a possible second phase extending to about thirty more and commercial service targeted for 2030, all subject to authorisations. The Métropole coordinates with municipalities and oversees evaluation, Stellantis supplies vehicles, and Bolt leads service integration and deployment. The driving technology supplier is not confirmed, with Pony.ai and NVIDIA platforms mentioned only as possibilities. No municipalities, fleet size, or investment figures were disclosed, and no party has been named to handle daily fleet operations.
