# A relevant person in charge of the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology: In the future, the open areas for autonomous driving will be expanded in an orderly manner

> The head of the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology stated that the open areas for autonomous driving will be expanded in an orderly manner in the future. Currently, autonomous taxis can be hailed in the Jinqiao Economic and Technological Development Zone in Pudong, Shanghai, and a new batch of "Intelligent Connected Vehicle Demonstration Operation Licenses" has been issued, marking the commercialization process of autonomous travel services. In the future, full-area openness in Pudong New District will be achieved, and the opening of areas such as Fengxian and Minhang will be promoted

In the Jinqiao Economic and Technological Development Zone of Pudong, Shanghai, people can now hail autonomous taxis. Currently, Pony AI has opened its autonomous taxi service to the public, and a reporter immediately went to experience it for 16.8 yuan. Recently, Shanghai issued a new batch of "Intelligent Connected Vehicle Demonstration Operation Licenses," with the first batch of licensed companies covering scenarios such as smart mobility, trunk logistics, and last-mile delivery. Industry insiders believe this also means that driverless autonomous driving services based on regulations can operate publicly for a fee, officially opening the door to commercialization. On open roads, a relevant person in charge from the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization revealed that there will be a gradual expansion of open areas for autonomous driving in the future. The goal is to achieve full open access in the Pudong New Area while simultaneously promoting open access in areas such as Fengxian and Minhang, and connecting the open roads of Shanghai's four major testing areas
