Overview
- Waymo will launch its fully autonomous ride-hailing service in Dallas through a partnership with Avis Budget Group, which will manage charging, maintenance and depot infrastructure.
- Customers in Dallas will hail robotaxis directly via the Waymo app, shifting away from the Uber-only model used in Austin.
- Dallas joins Miami and Washington, D.C. in Waymo’s confirmed slate of markets for next year as the company expands into high-fatality urban areas.
- The network currently handles over 250,000 paid trips each week across Phoenix, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin and Atlanta.
- The Waymo Driver has logged more than 100 million autonomous miles on public roads and is testing in over ten other cities, extending its lead over Tesla’s limited supervised trial.
