“Waymo is logging more than 200,000 paid robotaxi rides every week, according to Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, who shared the stat about the tech giant’s subsidiary on X.

Waymo commercially operates robotaxis in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Phoenix.

The 200,000-weekly trips milestone is notable for a company that was providing only 10,000 rides a week two years ago. As Pichai notes, the number of weekly paid rides has grown 20-fold in the past two years. In August, the company was providing 100,000 weekly paid robotaxi rides.

According to Waymo, the company’s self-driving system drives more than 1 million miles each week.”
