$WRD So Pony and Mowasalat (Karwa) team up to deploy tests in Qatar. No timelines in there presser.
That’s good news for WeRide as it’s more likely to work with Uber here.
Operator Landscape Qatar
Uber (Highest app-based volume)
Careem (High app-based, loyalty)
Karwa (Largest overall, state-backed)
Uber is focused on Urban/business travelers and is major in digital rides. Uber is leading among expats and tourists.
Careem (is Uber owned) and is Urban, integration partners focussed. Like Uber it’s big in digital rides. It integrates more with local services
Karwa is focused on Airport, contracts, app rides. While it has the largest total revenue, it’s more into pre-booked and contract rides.
So while Pony might be teaming up with the largest local player, it does not appear they have a large digital footprinht
