Vay Expands Remote-Driven Car Service in Las Vegas
The Berlin-based startup triples its fleet to 100 vehicles and establishes a new production facility to scale its teledriving technology.
- Vay's teledriving service allows users to request an electric vehicle remotely driven to their location, offering a cost-effective alternative to ridesharing and autonomous vehicles.
- The company has expanded its Las Vegas fleet from 30 to 100 cars, primarily using modified Kia Niro EVs equipped with cameras and sensors.
- A new 8,500-square-foot production facility in Las Vegas will support fleet scaling, processing up to 16 vehicles per week, and serve as a hub for hardware deployment.
- Vay's per-minute rental service is priced at half the cost of traditional ride-hailing options, providing users with greater privacy and control over their trips.
- Vay is also hiring remote drivers and preparing to extend its teledriving technology to trucks, with plans to grow its business-to-business offerings.
