Deployment Notes
[stage: commercial] Baidu said RT6 would enter operation on Apollo Go in China starting in 2023, and Apollo Go has operated paid robotaxi services in multiple Chinese cities including Beijing, Wuhan, Chongqing, and Shenzhen. Public reporting in 2026 still describes Apollo Go as providing driverless paid rides in China, with no safety driver required in the fully unmanned service areas; the exact RT6 fleet size in 2026 is not confirmed in the provided sources.
