True peace of mind comes from knowing your ride is always two steps ahead.

Against the record

Motional robotaxi, from Motional (Hyundai), is at stage 3 of 5 on our ladder: pilot. Working with a named customer in a real setting. The latest milestone on its record is from 13 March 2026: Uber added Motional's self-driving Ioniq 5 cars to its app in Las Vegas, in five areas, with a safety monitor in each car.

This video comes from the maker's own channel, and makers show their robots at their best. The stage above comes from dated public records, not from the video.

From the video's description

See how our robotaxi detects a stalled vehicle ahead and decisively initiates a lane change, while yielding to provide time and space for the vehicle in front space to merge first. By reading the entire scene, we prioritize safety and keeping traffic moving efficiently for everyone. #wowwednesday
