Nuro: Nuro's home base. Autonomous on-road testing of the Uber robotaxi program (Lucid Gravity with the Nuro Driver) began in the Bay Area in December 2025 with safety operators. A California DMV driverless testing permit (April 2026) covers Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, and a CPUC drivered pilot permit (May 2026) allows passengers with a safety driver but no paid rides. Select Uber employees have taken test rides in the Uber app since April 2026. The Bay Area is the program's first planned market, targeted for late 2026, exclusively on Uber.
