Waymo will begin testing its Jaguar I-PACE vehicles in Tokyo in early 2025 with human drivers mapping the city, contributing to its self-driving technology.
The data collected during the testing phase will be crucial for training Waymo’s self-driving system, while they also replicate Tokyo's driving challenges in the US.
Waymo's partnership with Japan's 'GO' taxi app signals its intent to offer driverless rides, catering to Japan's aging population despite its efficient transport system.
With a focus on expanding operations, Waymo raised $5.6 billion and plans to deploy its vehicles in several new US cities including Austin and Atlanta.
