Baidu launches Hong Kong's first large-scale robotaxi public trial in Tung Chung

Baidu will run a two-week public trial of its Apollo robotaxi platform in Tung Chung starting October 21, with over 1,000 residents expected to participate. This marks the first large-scale AV deployment in Hong Kong, a notable regulatory and operational milestone for the city's autonomous vehicle adoption. The trial's success could influence future AV policy and market entry in Hong Kong.
