Uber Embraces Deliveries To Boost Robotaxi Economics

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said Wednesday on the company's fourth-quarter earnings call that Uber could use Eats delivery and freight businesses to keep robotaxis productive during low-ridership periods. He noted delivery grew 29% while ride-hailing grew 18% in Q4, arguing logistics integration could raise utilization and strengthen the economic case for autonomous fleets.
