Autonomous Vehicles have arrived in London
Freenow by Lyft is bringing autonomous vehicles to London's streets – built by people, tested by people, for a city that never stops moving.

Be first in the know
It starts here
In 2026, five Baidu Apollo Go RT6 autonomous vehicles are mapping and testing on London's roads. This isn't a distant vision – it's happening now, street by street, in the city you live in.
Why Freenow by Lyft?
We're not replacing drivers. We're building a hybrid network that makes the whole system smarter – where human expertise and self-driving capability work together to create a stronger, safer city infrastructure.
Designed for humans
Our RT6 vehicles undergo rigorous driver-in testing throughout 2026, with safety operators present at every stage. We don't move faster than trust allows, and we have standby drivers during testing, throughout 2026.
The bigger picture
When transport works better, life works better. We're reimagining what it means to live and work in London – a city where the journey takes less, and the day gives more.
