Waymo expands autonomous ride-hailing service to three new cities

Investing.com -- Waymo is expanding its autonomous ride-hailing service to three new cities, the company announced on Thursday.

The Alphabet-owned self-driving technology company shared on X that it is beginning to lay the groundwork for operations in Minneapolis, Tampa, and New Orleans.

"Three more cities on the map! You may spot our cars on the road as we lay the early groundwork for our autonomous ride-hailing service," Waymo stated in its social media post.

This expansion adds to Waymo's existing autonomous ride-hailing operations in other U.S. markets. The company did not provide specific launch dates for when the service would be fully operational in these new locations.

Waymo vehicles will begin appearing on roads in these cities as part of the initial preparation phase for the eventual launch of its driverless taxi service.
