Nuro, a U.S.-based autonomous driving technology company, announced the closing of its $203 million Series E funding round, bringing its valuation to $6 billion. The round included new investors such as Uber, Icehouse Ventures, Kindred Ventures, NVIDIA, and Pledge Ventures, along with returning backer Baillie Gifford. The latest investment follows $106 million announced in April 2025 from investors including T. Rowe Price, Fidelity, Tiger Global, Greylock Partners, and XN, bringing total funds raised to more than $2.3 billion.
Co-Founder and President Dave Ferguson said, “The closing of our Series E reinforces the strong conviction our investors and strategic partners have in Nuro’s technology, our scalable approach to commercialization, and our vision for the future of autonomy.” He added, “With this new capital, we’re well-positioned to continue our next phase of growth, which will see us focus on delivering new commercial partnerships to realize autonomy at global scale.”
Nuro’s AI-first autonomous driving system, Nuro Driver, is designed for integration into commercial fleets, ride-hailing services, and personal vehicles. Its collaboration with NVIDIA has expanded from technical cooperation to investment, with Nuro using NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor platforms and GPUs for large-scale AI training. In July 2025, Nuro announced a partnership with Lucid and Uber to deploy over 20,000 vehicles integrated with the Nuro Driver beginning next year in a major U.S. city. With nine years of development and five years of real-world deployment, Nuro is among the few companies operating autonomous vehicles at the city scale.
