Waymo in Singapore
5 hours ago
- Waymo is introducing an all-electric autonomous ride-hailing fleet in Singapore, aiming to support the Singapore Green Plan 2030 with zero-emission rides.
- The Waymo Driver enhances road safety by reducing injury-causing crashes (94% fewer in U.S. cities) and improving mobility for pedestrians and cyclists.
- Waymo will complement Singapore's existing public transport network through collaboration with government agencies and local communities.
- The autonomous vehicles use cameras, radar, and lidar for 360-degree visibility up to 300 meters, and are trained to anticipate the actions of other road users.
- Waymo's phased deployment in Singapore includes manual mapping in 2026, autonomous driving with specialists in 2027, and a public service launch in 2028.
- The fleet will initially consist of all-electric Jaguar I-PACE vehicles, with future expansion to other platforms.
