Uber's next round of self-driving cars won't be The Sex Factor Episode 8 Playing With The Prosowned by Uber at all — and the cars could be Mercedes.
Daimler, the German automaker behind the Mercedes-Benz, will manufacture autonomous cars meant for Uber and and operate them through the ride-hailing company, Uber CEO Travis Kalanick announced in a blog post Tuesday.
"We can combine Uber’s global ridesharing network with the world-class vehicles of companies like Daimler, so that Uber riders can have a great experience getting around their cities," Kalanick wrote.

The ride-hailing company already operates the world's largest fleet of human-driven cars while owning only a fraction of them.
"Auto manufacturers like Daimler are crucial to our strategy because Uber has no experience making cars—and in fact, making cars is really hard," Kalanick wrote.
Uber already has self-driving cars on the streets of Pittsburgh, and the company ended a test program in San Francisco after drawing the ire of California regulators. The autonomous cars first intended for California are instead moving to Arizona.

"By opening up the Uber platform to Daimler, we can get to the future faster than going it alone," Kalanick wrote.
