Hailing a Waymo taxi means getting into a driverless car — and according to new numbers released by the company last week, more and more people are willing to do just that.

Alphabet-owned Waymo is taking over 50,000 paid robotaxi rides per week in three US cities with its all-electric, autonomous fleet, the company announced.

Waymo also announced that it has successfully completed over a million rider only rides.

Bookings for Waymo's robotaxi are concentrated in three main cities: Phoenix, San FranciscoAND The angels. of Waymo One the app, which works much like Lyft or Uber except the car appears without a human driver, operates around the clock in certain areas of those cities.

The cost of a Waymo ride in Los Angeles, for Time out, was about $7.61 for a trip of 2.1 miles and 14 minutes. Waymo told California regulators the end of last year that its fleet in San Francisco numbered 250 vehicles, but did not say how many cars it has in its entire operation.

“Fully autonomous travel is a reality and a preferred mobility option for people who navigate their cities every day,” Waymo said in a statement. POST at X, formerly Twitter.

In March, at SXSW today in Austin, Texas, Waymo co-CEO, Tekedra Mawakana announced that the Waymo One would be available in Austin “later this year.”

Waymo's robotax is self-driving and fully electric, but they're not without their complications. Waymo discovered and fixed a software problem across its entire fleet two months ago. In February, Waymo he told the audience that two of its robotaxis “made contact” with a pickup truck that the company said was “pulling erratically” in front of them.

The robotaxis incorrectly predicted where the towed vehicle would be, resulting in the accident. They were not carrying any passengers and had only minor damage.

Waymo updated the software of its entire fleet to correct the problem.

Last month, six Waymo vehicles blocked road traffic in San Francisco and in February, one hit a cyclistresulting in minor injuries.

The company claims that its robotaxi is significantly safer than human-directed vehicles, and has released research reports supporting her claims.

Other robotaxi companies have also faced accidents. Amazon-backed Zoox is under investigation starting Monday behind its self-driving cars brake suddenly two separate times, causing rear-end collisions.

A robotaxis from GM's Cruise was included in one accident with a pedestrian in October, resulting in the California DMV suspension Cruise's robotaxis permit.

Tesla will show it the first robotaxis coming soon: CEO Elon Musk has written the unveiling of the Tesla Robotaxi will take place on August 8.
