The Chrysler Pacifica-based Waymo autonomous taxi vans you can hail today in Arizona are fourth-generation vehicles. The fifth generation is based on the battery electricJaguar I-Pace, and its hardware and software are more sophisticated and the hardware is downsized. But fifth-generation vehicles are presently only open to Waymo employees. Each Pa...
This will sound anticlimactic, but using the Waymo One taxi service is barely different than using Uber, Lyft, or any other ride-hailing option. That's by design. Since the early days, Waymo's goal was to make its service and vehicles as approachable and unintimidating as possible. Like any other service, you download the app, give it your payment ...
The Waymo One isn't the first fully autonomous vehicle I've ridden in personally, but it's the first on public streets with no human in the front seat. I share this because my experience might make me more comfortable with the technology than someone who's never experienced it, though Waymo Group product manager Chris Ludwick says my reaction was t...
After seven rides spanning 12 hours (many of them making the poor van go in circles by adding stops), our Waymo rides cost an average of $2.06 per mile. Trips ranged from less than a mile to just more than 15, taking as little as 1 minute and as many as 43, and cost anywhere from $4.99 for a 1-mile, 6-minute trip to $23.14 for a 15.5-mile, 43-minut...
It occurred to me this type of scrutiny wouldn't be the future of the automotive evaluation business. It's a bit like looking over the shoulder of a teen driver: You know some situations might catch it off guard, and were it a person, we'd be far more forgiving. If someone made a tally of every driving decision any one of us has made and they disag...
We'll be driven across that bridge when we get to it. To get a better sense of what we might look for when evaluating future autonomous vehicles, we asked the guy who runs the program how he does it. "Keeping in mind that it's still fairly early days for autonomous vehicles," Ludwick said, "we tend to evaluate our fully autonomous Waymo One service...
With vehicles that literally drive themselves, you'd expect there to be fewer things to manage, but that's not the case at all. First and foremost is fueling. Gas pumps and EV chargers don't plug themselves in. Right now, Waymo's Fleet Response team handles that, as well as rescuing any vehicle that gets itself into a situation it can't get out of ...
More than anything, this test of ours revealed a chasm in the autonomous vehicle world. Fully autonomous taxi services like Waymo are miles ahead of companies like Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, General Motors, and Ford. We need to differentiate between an autonomous vehicle you hail and one you own, because the former is coming far sooner. If you liv...
