$WRD while I a have not een supportive of how WeRide messages its AD vehclies (compared to PONY CEO) I do agree with these comments by tony in a March 2025 Bloomberg interview where he said:
"So, one strategy of WeRide is we don’t want to compete for the price. Frankly speaking, I think, there may be several competitors. Actually that’s not many, only very very few competitors in China can supply reliable and efficient robotaxi, not that many, although many competitors claim that they have robotaxi fleet. But if you look at it, they are only at most 3 competitors can do robotaxi operations in China...
And I personally don’t think autonomous driving, or robotaxi, or the relevant product has come to a competition for us to compete against price. It hasn’t arrived to that stage yet. I believe the final winner will be the winner who can supply the best quality of the service, not simply the lowest price."
They've been developing this tech for a long time.
Orders will settle it.
