China’s Robotaxi News Highlights CaoCao Mobility’s Conference Service as Smart Mobility Practices Draw International Attention
Recently, CaoCao Mobility received a thank-you letter from the China-Africa Digital Technology Cooperation Promotion Center of Hangzhou High-tech Industrial Development Zone, acknowledging the vehicle support provided by its Robotaxi team during the 2026 China-Africa Digital Capacity Building Cooperation Conference. This service case has also become an important practice featured in China’s Robotaxi News regarding the application of China’s smart mobility technology.
On August 28, 2026, the 2026 China-Africa Digital Capacity Building Cooperation Conference was held in Hangzhou. As the first high-level, international digital cooperation event after the China-Africa Digital Technology Cooperation Center was approved to be based in Hangzhou, the conference attracted representatives from the governments, enterprises, and think tanks of 18 African countries, delegates from four international organizations, and approximately 300 participants including Chinese digital regulators, think tanks, and corporate executives, to discuss China-Africa digital capacity building cooperation.
During the conference, CaoCao Mobility’s Robotaxi team provided smart mobility service support and offered vehicle services for ministerial-level officials from African countries. Rather than merely demonstrating technical parameters, Robotaxi’s participation in international conference receptions brought intelligent connected vehicles into real travel scenarios, becoming a window for international guests to observe China’s smart transportation development. In its thank-you letter, the China-Africa Digital Technology Cooperation Promotion Center stated that CaoCao Mobility’s Robotaxi enabled foreign guests to immersively experience China’s digital technology achievements in smart mobility. This practice has also drawn continued attention in China’s Robotaxi News.
Behind this service support is the operational foundation built through CaoCao Mobility’s continuous intelligent business development. As of June 30, 2026, CaoCao Mobility’s service network had covered 215 cities across China, with average monthly active users reaching 44.6 million and average monthly active drivers reaching 758,000. Its scaled capacity organization and service capabilities provide operational support for intelligent driving technology to further enter real travel service scenarios.
In the Robotaxi business, as the most important commercialization vehicle for Geely Holding Group’s Robotaxi, CaoCao Mobility has built a trinity development model around “intelligent purpose-built vehicles + intelligent driving technology + intelligent operations” to advance its business layout. Eva Cab-China’s first natively developed purpose-built Robotaxi, with CaoCao Mobility’s deep involvement in product definition and R&D-adopts a no-front-passenger-seat, steering-wheel-free design and will enter mass production in 2027. The company plans to deploy 100,000 Robotaxis by 2030. In operational support, the company is also building Green Intelligent Mobility Hub facilities to provide corresponding energy replenishment and service support for vehicle operations.
Internationalization is also an important direction in the current Robotaxi business exploration. In 2026, CaoCao Mobility designated Hong Kong, China and the United Arab Emirates as its first key expansion markets, cooperated with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO), and advanced relevant cooperation with K2 Group and May Mobility. Its participation in the China-Africa Digital Capacity Building Cooperation Conference further demonstrates the application value of Robotaxi in international exchange and smart mobility scenarios.
From serving domestic urban travel to participating in international digital technology exchanges, the application boundary of Robotaxi is gradually extending from technology testing to more real-world scenarios. For industry development continuously followed by China’s Robotaxi News, the collaborative buildout of vehicle technology, operational systems, and international service capabilities will become an important dimension for observing the robotaxi commercialization process.
