Today Waymo announced the next phase of our partnership with Toyota. Together, we are taking a meaningful step forward in scaling fully autonomous driving technology globally.

Starting in Japan in 2027, we will begin testing and validation of custom-outfitted, all-electric, right-hand-drive (RHD) Toyota bZ4X autonomous vehicles. By partnering with Toyota's world-class vehicle development and manufacturing with the reliability of the Waymo Driver — we are making life-saving technology accessible to more communities.

Thank you to Toyota for your collaboration with us. The future of mobility is electric, autonomous, and built together.

We’ve autonomously driven more than 300,000 miles in Washington, D.C., safely navigating everything from crowded evenings in Chinatown to emergency scenes in the Third Street Tunnel. We are ready to serve Washingtonians, and to invest tens of millions of dollars in infrastructure and hundreds of local jobs needed to support our service in the nation’s capital.
