Real-world status
Pony AI's seventh-generation robotaxi launched into fully-driverless commercial service in November 2025 across Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Beijing, and is one of the Chinese commercial-at-scale anchors of DEPLOY's robotaxi cluster. It is built on a 100% automotive-grade autonomous-driving kit designed for a 600,000-km product lifecycle, with bill-of-materials cost reduced about 70% versus prior generations, and is produced in partnership with Beijing Automotive Industry Corporation (BAIC) and Guangzhou Automobile Group (GAC). Pony AI is NASDAQ-listed (PONY), which gives its disclosures a stronger public-company verification posture than private Chinese operators.
⚠
Verified-vs-claimed: the ~70% bill-of-materials cost reduction is a company-stated figure, and it is a manufacturing cost claim, not a consumer price. The Pony robotaxi is not sold to consumers.
