Here’s how it’ll work…

The Sustainable City’s car-free, pedestrian-friendly layout is ideal for testing autonomous tech. This new delivery robot pilot leverages cutting-edge technology to enhance safety, cleanliness, and cost-efficiency, while also reducing traffic, emissions, and wait times… How fab is that!

Plus, these speedy bots will deliver your food and shopping in under 30 minutes, effortlessly. They navigate around obstacles, locate their own charging stations, and never lose their way—no human assistance required.

This initiative aligns perfectly with Dubai’s grand vision to make 25% of trips autonomous by 2030. It’s all part of the mission to transform Dubai into the smartest city on the planet!
