Uber and Alphabet’s Waymo have ended their self-driving partnership in Phoenix, Arizona, as the ride-hailing giant prepares to launch a new autonomous vehicle collaboration in the city.
Under the partnership struck in 2023, Uber had integrated Waymo’s autonomous vehicles into its ride-hailing and food delivery platforms.
A Waymo spokesperson said that vehicles used for the pilot program have already been integrated back into its own Phoenix fleet, where they remain available through its app.
Waymo’s vehicles are still available on Uber in Austin and Atlanta.
Uber said it is readying the launch of a separate autonomous vehicle partnership in Phoenix, but did not name the new partner.
