Deal between Honda and GM subsidiary Cruise will see a fleet of Cruise Origin robotaxis, capable of holding up to 6 persons, in the Japanese capital.

American robotaxis will soon be arriving in Japan, following an agreement between Cruise, a subsidiary of General Motors, and Honda. The first such vehicles are scheduled to be deployed in 2026 in certain Tokyo neighborhoods, before expanding to offer a more extensive service in the city.

These driverless cabs are now also beginning to expand overseas: after an initial test in Dubai this year, there are now plans to bring them to the streets of Tokyo within three years. The Cruise Origin is an autonomous vehicle with no driver’s seat, steering wheel or joystick. It does, however, have a vast interior with space for six people to travel, seated face to face.
