HANGZHOU, CHINA -
Media OutReach Newswire - 16 February 2026 - On February 11,
CaoCao Inc.
announced that its Robotaxi fleet in Hangzhou's Binjiang District had
reached 100 vehicles, with operations supported by the company's Green
Intelligent Mobility Hub.
As Geely Holding Group's primary commercial platform for Robotaxi
operations, CaoCao has laid out a clear three-phase roadmap, with each
stage corresponding to a different level of technological maturity and
operational goals. The initial phase focuses on technology validation
and small-scale pilot operations. The current phase is aimed at
completing the transition from safety-driver-based services to fully
driverless operations, while trialing mixed fleets of human-driven and
autonomous vehicles. In the final phase, CaoCao plans to roll out fully
purpose-built Robotaxis and pursue large-scale commercial operations
globally.
The deployment of a 100-vehicle Robotaxi fleet in Hangzhou marks an
important early milestone in CaoCao's Robotaxi 2.0 phase. As the fleet
scales up, the company will further validate service reliability, refine
operational processes and enhance the passenger experience. CaoCao has
also brought the world's first Green Intelligent Mobility Hub online in
the city. Equipped with automated battery swapping, self-cleaning,
in-vehicle tidying, intelligent dispatching and automated billing, the
hub is designed not only to support day-to-day fleet operations, but
also to strengthen CaoCao's capabilities in large-scale automated
Robotaxi operations.
Next, CaoCao will gradually extend the daily service hours of its
Robotaxis and expand their service coverage. The company will roll out
its CaoCao Intelligent Mobility RAS remote safety platform and fully
implement an intelligent asset management system, further integrating
its operational strengths with smart cockpit and autonomous driving
technologies. These efforts are aimed at building a closed-loop system
for fully driverless Robotaxi operations and laying the groundwork for
large-scale deployment.
While expanding its domestic footprint, CaoCao is also stepping up
international collaboration. The company has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) and will
establish a local office in Abu Dhabi this year, where it will work with
local partners to pilot autonomous driving and green mobility
technologies.
In addition, CaoCao is working with Geely and other partners to develop a
fully purpose-built Robotaxi model pre-equipped with dedicated
autonomous driving hardware and software. The vehicle is set to debut
this year, and the company aims to deploy 100,000 of these vehicles by
2030. Green Intelligent Mobility Hubs will be rolled out in tandem with
the expansion of the Robotaxi business, providing comprehensive
automated support for all aspects of Robotaxi operations and, together
with partners, helping to build an integrated "sky–ground–space"
mobility ecosystem.
With its integrated model that combines intelligent purpose-built
vehicle, intelligent driving technology and intelligent operation,
CaoCao Inc. is steadily expanding its Robotaxi footprint and helping to
drive urban transportation toward a greener, smarter and more efficient
future.
