The expansion into Houston follows the establishment of a base in the San Francisco Bay area, where Uber is poised to launch commercially later this year. Autonomous testing on the road is already underway in Houston.

The announcement comes on the heels of Lucid securing $750 million in fresh capital, comprising $550 million from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) and $200 million from an Uber subsidiary.
