Introduction
Autonomous vehicles are here and they’re changing the way we get around. Slowly but surely, companies like Waymo and Tesla are introducing autonomous technology to their cars and trucks, paving the way for a future where we don’t have to do all of the driving ourselves.
Waymo is officially an autonomous vehicle manufacturer.
Waymo is the name of Google’s self-driving car project, which has been operating as a separate company since 2016. It’s now a subsidiary of Alphabet, but it will soon be able to sell its self-driving cars under its own brand and become an official autonomous vehicle manufacturer.
Waymo has been testing its vehicles on public roads for years, with nearly 10 million miles driven in California alone. Its fleet includes Lexus RX450h crossovers equipped with sensors and radars that are capable of handling all types of weather conditions including rainstorms and snowstorms (which are rare).
The potential impact of autonomous vehicles will be massive, but it’s hard to predict how that will play out.

There are some people who are excited about the potential for autonomous vehicles, and others who worry about it. The future of autonomous vehicles is unpredictable because there are so many variables involved in whether or not they become mainstream.
The future of autonomous vehicles could look very different from what we see today.
The future of autonomous vehicles is hard to predict, but it could look very different from what we see today.
The future of autonomous vehicles will be impacted by many factors, including: the actions of regulators, the actions of companies developing AV technology and services (like Waymo), the actions of consumers who buy AVs or use ride-hailing services like Lyft/Uber; etc.
Conclusion
The future of autonomous vehicles is still uncertain. But it’s clear that these cars will have a huge impact on how we get around and how our cities work. We can expect them to change the way we live and work, as well as how we design roads and parking lots. And while some people may be nervous about giving up control over their vehicles, others are excited by the prospect of better safety–and more free time!
