Waymo and Uber End Phoenix Robotaxi Partnership

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from TechCrunch ·

Waymo and Uber have quietly ended their three-year partnership in Phoenix, where Uber riders could hail Waymo autonomous vehicles. The companies confirmed the split to TechCrunch, marking the end of a unique collaboration in the robotaxi space. No reason was given, but both firms continue to pursue autonomous driving independently.

Meridian48 take
