Verne is a Croatian mobility tech start-up founded by Mate Rimac that has developed a self-driving taxi called Verne. The taxi is a spacious, two-seat electric vehicle that can be hailed using a smartphone app. Verne plans to launch its self-driving, ride-hailing service in Manchester after 2026, following its initial rollout in Zagreb, Croatia. The company has also signed agreements with other cities in the UK, Germany, and the Middle East. Verne aims to reduce city-center car usage, free up traffic lanes and parking spaces, and create more space for people, while also providing a comfortable and personalized customer experience.
