Wayve, Stellantis and Nvidia announced a French government partnership for self-driving deployment in France and the EU. The companies gave no launch date, fleet size or list of cities.
Stellantis will supply vehicles prepared for self-driving, while Wayve will provide its AI Driver software. Nvidia’s Hyperion computing and sensor platform will run the software.
Wayve and Stellantis already work together and demonstrated hands-free driving in Turin in October. Their first North American launch is planned for 2028.
For companies building autonomous transport services, regulatory approval remains a constraint: fully self-driving cars have just one EU approval route, limited to 1,500 vehicles annually. France says it will change its rules to accelerate deployment while retaining strict safety and data sovereignty requirements.
Without a disclosed launch date or fleet size, suppliers still lack concrete information for planning.
The EU approval cap limits the scale available to businesses building services around fully self-driving fleets.
France’s promised rule changes are not yet enacted, leaving the route to faster deployment unproven.
