Waymo was born out of Google’s self driving project, which started in 2009. It became an official company under Alphabet in 2016. While people tend to focus on Waymo’s autonomous passenger vehicles, it also is building an autonomous truck technology through its Waymo Via project.
The company has been testing its technology on Class 8 Trucks and has partnered with several transportation logistics partners, including Ryder System Inc, C.H. Robinson, J.B. Hunt, Wayfair, and UPS.
