Uber has been testing autonomous food delivery in partnership with various companies in several cities over the past few years. Now, through its team-up with Waymo, Uber is bringing self-driving passenger vehicles to Phoenix users of its ride-hailing app.
This launch makes Phoenix the first city where residents and visitors can access driverless ride-hailing vehicles from Uber’s network. Waymo’s fleet of all-electric Jaguar I-PACE SUVs will be available 24/7 to transport Uber riders within specific areas of Phoenix.
