Moving Tech Innovations (MTI), the operator of the world’s largest open infrastructure for shared mobility, has announced its acquisition of the Netherlands-based Automicle Holding BV, marking MTI’s formal expansion into the European market. MTI currently powers leading open mobility platforms such as Namma Yatri, Bharat Taxi, and Chennai One. The collaboration aims to accelerate the adoption of locally managed, open mobility systems across Europe.

European cities are increasingly reevaluating their mobility ecosystems, emphasizing transparency, sustainability, multi-modal integration, and long-term control over data and policy decisions. Accessible and inclusive transportation is now central to urban innovation. Automicle was founded to meet these challenges, offering digital parking and public mobility solutions built on European regulatory knowledge and close engagement with local stakeholders.

MTI brings to Europe a mature, population-scale mobility platform that has facilitated over 150 million trips and generated more than €250 million in commission-free earnings for drivers. Designed as digital public infrastructure, the platform offers fully customizable, end-to-end solutions for ride-hailing, micro-mobility, parking, integrated public transport, and specialized services such as ambulance and senior transport. Fully compliant with GDPR, data localization, and local ownership standards, the platform allows European cities to deploy reliable, cost-effective mobility systems with confidence.

Jef Heyse and Mohit Mishra, Automicle co-founders, stated: “This marks a major milestone for Automicle and European mobility. By combining our regional expertise with MTI’s proven infrastructure, we can roll out locally governed systems that create meaningful, scalable impact while upholding European values and governance standards.”

Magizhan and Shan MS, MTI co-founders, added: “Europe and India are aligned around a shared vision: digital infrastructure is most effective when it is open, transparent, and developed collaboratively with cities and communities. Together, we can build mobility systems that are dependable, affordable, and designed to endure.”

Both companies operate on open standards, including the Beckn Protocol and TOMP API, enabling smooth integration across operators while avoiding vendor lock-in. Advanced discussions are already underway in several European countries, as cities seek forward-looking mobility solutions based on open protocols, local ownership, and long-term sustainability.

On November 18, 2025, GAC staged a major brand and product launch event in Sydney, marking the official rollout of its Australia-focused initiative, “GAC: Growing Australian Confidence.” This strategy represents the localized execution of GAC’s global “One GAC 2.0” vision. A key highlight of the ceremony was the simultaneous Australian debut of three globally significant models: the intelligent and spacious AION V SUV, the M8 PHEV luxury MPV—Australia’s first plug-in hybrid MPV—and the EMZOOM, a sporty and intelligent compact SUV.

Together, the lineup delivers a broad spectrum of mobility options, spanning fully electric, plug-in hybrid, and conventional fuel powertrains, tailored to the needs of city drivers, families, and business users.

As Australia’s first plug-in hybrid luxury MPV, the M8 PHEV introduces the concept of a “Serene and Refined Mobile Mansion.” Blending smooth yet powerful electrified performance with advanced comfort and smart features, it establishes a new standard for executive transport and premium family travel.

Engineered for modern households, the AION V combines extended electric driving range, ultra-rapid charging capability, flexible interior space, and comprehensive safety technologies. It has earned the highly regarded E-NCAP five-star safety rating and meets Australia’s strict five-star safety requirements, positioning it as a benchmark for intelligent, environmentally friendly SUVs and an ideal choice for families pursuing sustainable mobility.

Targeting younger, style-driven consumers, the EMZOOM stands out with its bold exterior design, smart cockpit features, and engaging driving dynamics. It reflects GAC’s focus on youthful creativity, innovation, and performance-oriented engineering.

Collectively, these three models highlight GAC’s dedication to exceptional quality and advanced technology, directly addressing Australian buyers’ expectations for safety, driving range, intelligent features, and overall value. Looking ahead, GAC plans to launch more than ten additional vehicles in Australia over the next five years, covering sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, and MPVs. This expansion will create a full-spectrum product lineup across all major powertrain types, delivering high-technology, high-quality, and high-value mobility solutions to Australian customers.
