Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with a mission to make it safe and easy for people and things to get where they’re going. Since our start as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has been focused on building the Waymo Driver - the World’s Most Experienced Driver^TM to improve everyone's access to mobility while saving thousands of lives now lost to traffic crashes.

We’re committed to developing fully autonomous vehicles because we believe that this is safer and better for all those who share our roads.

Around the world, over 1.35 million people die on our roadways annually. In the US alone, traffic collisions kill over 35,000 people a year. In the U.S., 94% of crashes involve human error or choice, and this is one place where we believe we really can bring technology to bear. Autonomously driven vehicles could also help people who can't drive—whether elderly, blind, or disabled—to get around and do the things they love.

In addition, truck crashes cause 4,000 deaths and a further 110,000 people are injured in commercial truck-related crashes annually in the U.S. With Waymo Via, we’re hoping to make highways safer by integrating the Waymo Driver to operate commercial trucks.

Our fleet of autonomously driven vehicles has included modified Toyota Priuses, Lexus SUVs, a custom-built prototype vehicle (nicknamed "Firefly"), and our fully autonomous Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans. The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans are our first vehicles built on a mass-production platform with a fully-integrated hardware suite, newly designed by Waymo for the purpose of full autonomy.

Most recently, we’ve partnered with Jaguar and leveraged their I-PACE platform to create the world's first premium electric autonomously driven vehicle. We’re currently testing these vehicles.

With Waymo Via, we're also integrating Class 8 trucks with the Waymo Driver to operate autonomously. This includes combining the World’s Most Experienced Driver^TM with Daimler’s Freightliner Cascadia to enable fully autonomous truck driving.

Waymo Via is our autonomous driving solution for moving goods. Currently we are testing Class 8 Heavy duty trucks that are operated by the Waymo Driver in California, Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico. We're also testing local delivery in Arizona with our fleet of autonomously driven Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans Learn more.

At Waymo, we're focused on building the Waymo Driver, which is how we refer to our autonomous driving technology. There are two pieces to the Waymo Driver: hardware and software. On the hardware side, we have a sensor suite that includes lidar, cameras, radar, and a powerful AI compute platform. Collectively, they provide a 360 degree view of the world. On the software side, we take all of the information our sensors collect to answer four key questions: Where am I? What’s around me? What will happen next? And what should I do? Together, our hardware and software work in concert to paint a complete picture of the world around the car and enable us to navigate roads safely.

Waymo One is our fully public, fully autonomous ride hailing service. Now anyone can take fully autonomous rides anytime they're in Metro Phoenix. Just download the Waymo One app and ride right away.

Riders can use the Waymo One app to hail one of our fully autonomous cars operated by the Waymo Driver, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They can use it to get around several cities in the Metro Phoenix area. Whether it's for a fun night out or just to get a break from driving, our riders get the same clean vehicle every time and a driver with over 20 million miles of experience on public roads.

The Trusted Tester program is a confidential research program within Waymo One, where select riders will have access to our autonomous ride-hailing service and can share their experiences directly with our team to help shape the future of autonomous driving.

Our Waymo One fully autonomous ride-hailing service operates within parts of the Phoenix metropolitan area, including Chandler, Tempe, Mesa and Gilbert. Our service operates around the clock, seven days a week. Riders can travel anywhere in our territory day and night.

In San Francisco, we operate the Waymo One Trusted Tester program, where select riders will have access to our autonomous ride-hailing service and can share their experiences directly with our team to help shape the future of autonomous driving.

Anyone in the Metro Phoenix area has access to Waymo’s fleet of fully autonomous cars operated by the Waymo Driver, including our Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivans.

In San Francisco, riders in our Trusted Tester program have access to the world's first premium electric autonomously driven vehicle: the Jaguar I-PACE.

Yes. Our Waymo One vehicles are now fully autonomous. That means no one is in the driver's seat when you ride with us.

Waymo One is currently available in the East Valley of Phoenix Arizona, including Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa and Tempe. Residents of San Francisco can also participate in the Trusted Tester program, a confidential research program within Waymo One, where select riders will have access to our service and can share their experiences directly with our team to help shape the future of autonomous driving. To express interest in participating in the Trusted Tester program as well as other Waymo research, simply download the Waymo One app and follow the instructions. To stay up to date on our progress, please follow our blog and Twitter. You can also sign up for updates from Waymo.

In our Trusted Tester program, our vehicles are primarily driving autonomously. You’ll notice that our cars have autonomous specialists riding in the driver’s seat. These specialists are there to monitor our autonomous driving technology and share important feedback to help us improve the Waymo One experience.

Our Rider Support team is happy to help reunite you with your lost item. Please contact us here.

We hope to bring the ease and safety of autonomous cars to as many people as we can. We can't yet say where we're headed next, but we do look forward to bringing our technology to new cities as soon as possible.

Your feedback is important to us. If you've seen us on the road and would like to provide feedback on how we drive, please contact us and tell us about your experience.

If you are a Waymo One rider and would like to provide feedback on your service experience, please reach out to our Rider Support team via the app.
