Waymo

Overview

Waymo is an Alphabet subsidiary focused on autonomous driving technology. It originated from Google's self-driving car project in 2009 and was rebranded in 2016. The company aims to enhance transportation safety and accessibility by eliminating the need for human drivers. Waymo has logged over 25 million real-world autonomous miles across more than 25 cities in the United States.

The organization develops fully autonomous vehicles equipped with custom sensors, computers, and advanced systems for driverless operation. Its fleet includes Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans and Jaguar I-Pace electric sedans for robotaxi services. The technology emphasizes safety and precise environmental mapping, supporting navigation through complex routes. Since 2017, Waymo has operated driverless ride-hailing services in Metro Phoenix, Arizona, with fully driverless rides available in Chandler, Arizona since 2020. The company continues to refine its technology and services across various U.S. cities.
