Nuro closed a $203 million Series E funding round at a $6 billion valuation, with participation from Uber, Baillie Gifford, NVIDIA and others. The $97 million in new financing follows the $106 million injection announced in April 2025, bringing the company’s total fundraising to more than $2.3 billion. 

Founded in 2016, Nuro is responsible for developing Nuro Driver, an autonomous driving system designed for integration into commercial fleets, ride-hailing services and personal vehicles. The company licenses its technology to automakers and mobility providers, offering a path to deploy self-driving solutions at scale. Nuro has spent more than nine years in development and five years deploying its technology across multiple U.S. states, which includes deployments without safety drivers.

Looking ahead, Nuro will invest in scaling its AI-first autonomous driving technology and expanding commercial partnerships. It recently announced a collaboration with Lucid and Uber to launch a robotaxi service deploying 20,000 Lucid vehicles equipped with the Nuro Driver across dozens of markets starting next year. The company also deepened its relationship with NVIDIA to power its computing systems and validate product safety.
