SAN JOSE: Google’s sister company Waymo is rapidly expanding its robotaxi business ahead of potential arrival of new competitors, notably Elon Musk's Tesla.
Waymo’s self-driving cars now complete more than 250,000 rides with paying passengers every week, according to Google chief executive Sundar Pichai. The company had only reached the milestone of 200,000 rides at the end of February.
