Alphabet-owned Waymo, together with Japanese taxi service GO and operator Nihon Kotsu, plans to launch Japan's first fully driverless robotaxi service in Tokyo in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The launch is dependent on regulatory approvals and continued testing of the technology, according to a statement from the companies. Seekingalpha reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The service will begin with a smaller fleet of vehicles, which will then gradually be expanded to around 100 vehicles in central parts of Tokyo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Waymo began collecting road data in Tokyo last year as a first step in the company's international expansion. When the service launches, trips will be booked through both GO and Waymo's apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
