Hertz is expanding into the robotaxi sector by offering infrastructure services to autonomous fleet operators. The company has launched Oro Mobility, a new business focused on supporting autonomous vehicle fleets with charging, maintenance, cleaning and depot operations. Rather than building self-driving technology, Hertz wants to use its nationwide network and fleet expertise to help robotaxi operators keep vehicles on the road. The strategy reflects a major shift in autonomous mobility. As robotaxi services expand, success will depend not only on the vehicles themselves, but also on the infrastructure that keeps them running. Efficient charging, servicing and fleet operations are becoming critical to commercial deployment. The initiative is also part of Hertz's broader transformation strategy. By repurposing its existing assets and operational know-how, the company aims to become a key partner for autonomous mobility providers and capture new opportunities as the robotaxi market continues to grow.
