Waymo expands driverless ride-hailing to four new U.S. cities

Waymo will begin rolling out its driverless vehicles in four new cities in the coming weeks, furthering its U.S. expansion and building on its lead over domestic rivals Tesla and Zoox, which is owned by Amazon.

Alphabet's robotaxi division will soon start offering fully autonomous rides in San Diego, Las Vegas, Tampa, Florida, and Denver, the company said Wednesday.

While the launch will initially be for Alphabet employees, the rollout will then extend to the public.
