Waymo is offering rides to members of the public in its all-new robotaxi.
Specially selected customers in San Francisco, Phoenix and Los Angeles will get the opportunity to try the new Ojai for free over the next few weeks as the company seeks feedback on its latest vehicle, before commercial operations officially commence.
The launch of the Ojai has been a long time coming, with the robotaxi -- an all-electric minivan based on a Chinese-market model from Geely-owned Zeekr -- first appearing as a concept at an event in LA in 2022.
