Waymo's Driverless Taxis Are Coming to London

Waymo, a driverless taxi company, has announced its plans to launch in London in 2026, marking its second launch outside of the US.

The company is already testing its "robo-taxis" in Tokyo, but London is expected to be a bigger challenge due to its winding and narrow roads.

As

London is much older than many US cities
, Waymo may require more testing before launching its services.

Despite the challenges, Londoners may be able to hail driverless taxis as early as next year.
