China’s WeRide enters Denmark, extending European footprint

Chinese autonomous driving technology company WeRide said on Monday it would enter Denmark through a partnership with Danish electric mobility operator GreenMobility, extending its European footprint to a sixth country as Chinese self-driving firms accelerate overseas expansion.

Europe has emerged as a key growth market for ‌China’s autonomous driving ⁠companies, ⁠following an earlier push into the Gulf region, as they seek to ​commercialise their technology beyond their home market amid intensifying competition and regulatory scrutiny.
