WeRide, in collaboration with Resorts World Sentosa and EZ Buzz Pte. Ltd, launched its Robobus shuttle service at Sentosa in Singapore. This event marks the debut of Singapore’s first publicly accessible L4-level autonomous Robobus route for passenger operations.
Named the WeRide Robobus, the shuttle route covers 1.2 kilometers and includes four stops, completing the journey in approximately 12 minutes. Hotel guests and tourists can conveniently board the Robobus at any of these stops.
WeRide obtained Singapore’s M1 and T1 public road licenses for autonomous vehicles in December 2023, enabling the rapid deployment of the Robobus and establishing a new standard for implementation speed in the industry.
On June 20, Mr. Alvin Tan, Minister of State for Trade & Industry, Culture, Community & Youth of Singapore, visited Sentosa with his delegation to inspect and experience the autonomous driving shuttle robobus. He later shared on social media: “Two months ago, I visited WeRide’s autonomous technologies at their Headquarters in Guangzhou. Yesterday, I witnessed their AV application here at Resorts World Sentosa!” He also noted that by integrating autonomous vehicle technology, we allow for a more productive use of our limited manpower resources and ensure a more sustainable and scalable transport solution.
Resorts World Sentosa, Asia’s premier lifestyle destination, features Universal Studios Singapore, S.E.A. Aquarium, Dolphin Island, Adventure Cove Waterpark, a collection of luxurious five-star hotels, an integrated resort, multiple theme parks, and a variety of celebrity chef restaurants. For a decade running, it has been honored with the “Best Integrated Resort” award at the TGG Travel Awards.
WeRide Robobus stands as the world’s pioneering Level 4 autonomous driving minibus tailored for micro-transit. Operating in nearly 30 cities globally, it is prominently utilized in major urban centers, key airports, luxury resorts, and popular tourist spots, attracting visitors seeking unique experiences wherever it operates.
WeRide’s rapid and successful development in Singapore is underscored by the consecutive commercial launches of the Robosweeper and Robobus. These milestones reaffirm WeRide’s leadership in global autonomous driving technology and validate the replicability of its business model.
Looking ahead, WeRide remains committed to partnering with local entities to introduce more validated products and business models to Singapore and Southeast Asia. This commitment aims to deliver efficient, high-quality autonomous driving services to residents and tourists alike, fostering the advancement of smart transportation systems across the region.
