Waymo will launch autonomous robotaxis in Munich in 2027
Google subsidiary starts this for the first time in Germany and the EU. Bavaria sees itself as a pioneer in autonomous driving.
Waymo plans to launch self-driving robotaxis in Munich by the end of 2027. The company, a subsidiary of Google, will start deploying its vehicles in Munich later this year, initially with manual control. Waymo will begin mapping the local road network and testing its autonomous system with safety drivers. This marks Waymo's entry into the German and EU markets, where it will join other companies such as Lyft and Baidu, which plan to introduce autonomous vehicles in 2026.
