May Mobility Expands Fleet with Electric Autonomous Minibuses

The U.S.-based company partners with Tecnobus to introduce 30-passenger minibuses, aiming to challenge Waymo in the autonomous transit market.

May Mobility unveiled a partnership with Tecnobus to add electric, self-driving minibuses capable of seating 30 passengers to its fleet by 2026.
The minibuses feature swappable batteries for reduced downtime and are designed for urban transit, corporate campuses, airports, and other planned communities.
This marks a shift from May Mobility's current fleet of smaller Toyota Sienna minivans, which are retrofitted with autonomous technology and serve geofenced areas.
The company aims to expand its operations to new markets, including Europe and Canada, while continuing its focus on long-term transportation contracts with businesses and governments.
With General Motors exiting the autonomous vehicle market, May Mobility positions itself as a key U.S. competitor to Waymo, emphasizing its patented safety technology and incident-free operations to date.
