Waymo in Miami - The Road to Autonomy

Waymo Heads to Miami, Tesla Releases FSD 13 and The Future Rideshare

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Waymo’s expansion to Miami, Uber and Lyft’s future in the era of autonomy and Tesla’s release of FSD 13.

Waymo is expanding to Miami in 2025 without one of their partners—Uber. Instead, Waymo chose Moove as their fleet management partner. Could this signal something more broad, as Moove is also taking over the fleet management operations for Waymo in Phoenix?

Tesla released Full Self-Driving (FSD) 13.2 this week and it appears to have lived up with the hype with Alphabet CEO, Sundar Pichai acknowledging that he currently views Waymo and Tesla as the two leaders in the development and commercialization of autonomous vehicles.
