Lyft is now offering fully autonomous Waymo robotaxi rides in Nashville that passengers can book through the Lyft app. The service uses Waymo’s driverless vehicles and becomes available in multiple parts of the city, including areas such as Downtown/Broadway and several other Nashville neighborhoods.
The launch is described as Lyft’s second U.S. market for driverless trips, as the company expands partnerships with Waymo while competing with Uber. One outlet highlights that this makes the Nashville area the first market where the same Waymo autonomous fleet is offered through two competing rideshare platforms, reflecting a broader shift toward deploying robotaxi services through mainstream app marketplaces.
