DeepRoute.ai was founded in February 2019 with a mission to make autonomous driving safer, more reliable and more intelligent.
Committed to advancing urban logistics and popularizing Robotaxis, the company is comprised of two product lines, DeepRoute-LINK (Robotruck) and DeepRoute-INJOY (Robotaxi). DeepRoute.ai is the only L4 autonomous driving company to have an internet giant as a strategic investor.
In December 2021, DeepRoute.ai took an important step toward mass production and announced a production-ready L4 solution, Driver 2.0, for less than $10,000, ¼ the average cost of other industry solutions. Four months later in April 2022, a Robotaxi fleet of 30 equipped with Driver 2.0 was deployed in Shenzhen, boasting the lowest cost in the industry.
DeepRoute.ai has collaborated with Dongfeng Motor, Caocao Mobility, and others across different cities, accumulating over 7 million kilometers of road testing and operations with no accidents.
In three short years, DeepRoute.ai has applied its innovative L4 autonomous driving technology to a multitude of scenarios and won recognition from partners, media and the automotive and technology industries. DeepRoute.ai will continue to expand on the potential of autonomous driving to further facilitate the future of mobility and logistics, ultimately improving urban living.
