Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer XPeng has received regulatory approval from Guangzhou to begin testing Level 4 autonomous robotaxi services in the city. The move marks a significant step toward commercial deployment of highly automated ride-hailing vehicles, as Guangzhou joins a growing list of regions exploring self-driving taxi pilots. Level 4 autonomy allows vehicles to operate without human intervention in specific conditions, though a remote operator remains on standby for oversight. The approval follows recent advancements in autonomous driving technology and regulatory openness in major Chinese cities.
