Uber and Waymo end their robotaxi collaboration in Phoenix, according to multiple reports citing confirmations from both companies. The partnership, which has operated for nearly three years in the city, involved Waymo’s driverless vehicles being offered through Uber’s platform. In recent updates, Waymo robotaxi availability is no longer shown in Uber’s app in Phoenix, signaling the relationship has been wound down. TechCrunch and Bloomberg report that the companies confirm the split, describing the arrangement as one that shifted over time because the two firms are also competitors in the autonomous driving space. Bloomberg further reports that Uber plans to announce a new partner, indicating it is replacing the relationship rather than exiting robotaxi plans altogether. Engadget notes the change may push Uber toward using its own robotaxi options instead of relying on external partners, though it does not provide additional details beyond the observed end of Waymo rides in the app. Overall, the sources agree that the Phoenix test collaboration is over and that Waymo vehicles are no longer being routed through Uber in that market.
