In August 2016 MIT spinoff NuTonomy was the first company to make robotaxis available to the public, starting to offer rides with a fleet of 6 modified Renault Zoes and Mitsubishi i-MiEVs in a limited area in Singapore. Most of these shuttle buses operate a low speeds although recently a number of vehicles capable of highway speeds have been revealed including the Zoox and the Cruise Origin. Separate to these efforts have been trials of shared autonomous vehicles with larger vehicles on fixed routes with designated stops, able to carry between 6 and 10 passengers. Revenue service for the general public has been introduced in a number of trials.

In these cases either a support driver is brought to the vehicle or the car is operated remotely. Vehicles may also be manually driven if a vehicle is becomes 'paralysed' by a situation out of which it cannot manoeuvre automatically.

Further development has led to testing without a safety drivers in the vehicles although some trials resume the use of drivers under inclement weather such as rain.

Early tests offered free rides and were restricted to company employees or pre-approved passengers. In early tests there were one or two 'safety drivers' or 'safety engineers' to take control back in case of emergency. All tests so far only operate in a geo-fenced area. Several companies are testing robotaxi services, especially in the United-States and in China. Waymo has estimated its hardware costs at $0.30В perВ mile (~$0.19В perВ km), but this excludes the cost of fleet technicians and customer support. Volume production may see the cost fall further and Baidu announced in June 2021 it would start producing robotaxi for 500,000В yuan (US$77,665) each. However, the prices of some components such as the LIDAR has fallen by up to 90%. The cost of early vehicles has been estimated at up to $300,000 due to custom manufacture and specialised sensors. LIDAR, cameras and other sensors have been used on all vehicles. So far all the trials have involved specially modified passenger cars with space for 2 or 4 passengers sitting in the back seats behind a partition.

However, questions have been raised as to whether the progress of self-driving technology has stalled and whether issues of social acceptance, cybersecurity and cost have been addressed. There are a number of pilot trials underway in cities around the world, some of which are in revenue service and open to the public. Predictions of the widespread and rapid introduction of robo-taxis - by as early as 2018 - have not been realised. The expectable reduction of the number of vehicles means less embodied energy but energy consumption for redistribution of empty vehicles must be taken into account. Concerning pollution and consumption of energy and other resources, robotaxis could lead to significant improvement since these services will most probably use electric cars and for most of the rides, less vehicle size and range is necessary compared to usual, individually owned vehicles. Moreover, they could have a very positive impact on road safety, traffic congestion and parking. Several studies highlighted that robotaxis operated in an Autonomous Mobility on Demand (AMoD) service could be one of the most rapidly adopted applications of autonomous cars at scale and a major mobility solution in the near future, especially in urban areas, providing the majority of vehicle miles in the United States within a decade of their first introduction.
