Uber has secured a partnership with Mercedes-Benz

Date:

Uber has secured a partnership with Mercedes-Benz.  This has come out of its continued effort to build a fleet of self-driving vehicles for its service.

The popular ride-hailing company is trying to bring Mercedes into their prospective self-driving transportation network.

There is no exclusivity in this deal, Mercedes can supply autonomous vehicles to Uber’s competitors and Uber can use vehicles from other automakers as well. A timeline has yet to be announced.

“Auto manufacturers like Daimler are crucial to our strategy because Uber has no experience making cars — and in fact, making cars is really hard,” Uber CEO Travis Kalanick said in a statement.

Last year the San Francisco-based Uber, reached an agreement with Volvo to test its self-driving technology on a fleet of XC90s in Pittsburg and Arizona.
