Overview

• Dallas will become Waymo’s second Texas market after Austin and will use the company’s own app for requesting rides instead of third-party platforms.
• The service is scheduled to launch in 2026 under a multi-year partnership with Avis Budget Group, which will manage depot operations for the Dallas robotaxi fleet.
• Waymo currently runs about 1,500 fully autonomous vehicles across five U.S. cities, completing over 250,000 paid trips each week.
• Its driverless fleet has accumulated over 100 million miles on public roads while undergoing tests in more than ten other markets, including New York and Philadelphia.
• Tesla’s robotaxi remains limited to a human-supervised trial in Austin, further distinguishing Waymo’s fully driverless operations.
