- Deployment Notes
- [stage: pilot] As of early 2026, the R2 fleet has begun public-road testing in Guangzhou and is planned for phased demonstration applications in Guangzhou and Beijing, but the available sources do not confirm fully paid public rides for the new R2 fleet. DiDi also had earlier 24/7 driverless taxi trials in Guangzhou, with public availability reported in parts of the city, but the current R2 deployment is described as road-test or demonstration service rather than full commercial rollout.
