Waymo Will Be Adding 60,000 Self-Driving Minivans To Its Taxi Fleet

‘Waymo’ the Google’s autonomous car subsidiary, announced that they would order 62,000 Pacifica minivans from Fiat Chrysler, and it’s one of the latest sign that Alphabet’s self-driving car company is operating on a different level from the rest of the industry.

“We are excited to the idea of deepening our collaboration with FCA, which will support the launch of our self-driving service and explore future products,” said John Krafcik, the boss of Waymo.

“The Pacifica satisfies Waymo’s need for a vehicle that can be used to move a good number of people at once. And Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) gets to look good standing next to one of the world’s biggest tech giants with some of the best self-driving technology around.

Waymo currently has around 600 minivans in its fleet, and some of them have been used to shuttle people around in Phoenix, Arizona and others are being tested in states like California, Washington, Michigan and Georgia.
