Best Tech 2025: Waymo One Advances the Robotaxi Future

Summary

Nutrition label

75% Informative

Waymo One is the name of its commercial robotaxi service.

The service now operates in Phoenix , Los Angeles , San Francisco , and Austin .

The company has completed millions of real-world miles and billions more miles in simulations.

Waymo has a strong safety record, but its vehicles have occasionally clogged roads and impeded first responders.

The best way to assuage those fears is to get people in the cars.

Although Waymo One does n’t currently have any viable competition, theoretical rivals would need to demonstrate a tremendously impressive track record of good road behavior and corporate governance to outdo what’s become the most established provider of autonomous transportation. It’s the leap from rolling UFO to ho-hum driverless operation that makes Waymo One the worthy winner of our inaugural MotorTrend 2025 Best Tech Award for robotaxis.
