Moove and Waymo Partner toRevolutionize the Future of Mobility
In a groundbreaking move aimed at transforming urban transportation, Moove, a leading global provider of innovative mobility solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Waymo, a pioneer in autonomous driving technology. This landmark agreement sees Moove take on the management and operation of Waymo’s fully autonomous fleet, marking a pivotal moment in the evolution of shared autonomous mobility.
Expanding Access to Safe and Sustainable Transportation
Under the terms of the partnership, Moove will manage and deploy Waymo’s cutting-edge autonomous vehicles in Phoenix, Arizona, starting in 2025, followed by an expansion to Miami, Florida, in 2026. Moove will be responsible for managing all aspects of fleet operations, including logistics, facility maintenance, and charging infrastructure, ensuring the seamless and efficient running of Waymo’s all-electric autonomous vehicle fleet.
This collaboration allows Waymo to focus its expertise on refining and advancing its world-renowned autonomous driving technology, Waymo Driver, while Moove leverages its proven fleet management expertise to scale operations rapidly and cost-effectively.
A Commitment to Innovation and Inclusion
“We are thrilled to partner with Moove in Phoenix and later in Miami to bring together our mobility-focused fleet management expertise with their growing service, Waymo One,” said Ryan McNamara, Vice President of Operations at Waymo. “Together, we will deliver safe, seamless rides to users and, over time, scale faster and more cost-effectively, with safety continuing to lead the way.”
While Moove expands into the autonomous vehicle sector, the company maintains its deep commitment to serving its existing customers in emerging markets. Moove will continue to provide its flagship Drive-to-Own (DTO) program, which empowers underserved mobility entrepreneurs by providing affordable access to vehicle ownership through a revenue-based financing model.
Shaping a Smarter, More Sustainable Future
Autonomous vehicles hold the key to addressing some of the most pressing challenges facing urban mobility today. From reducing traffic congestion and improving safety to minimizing environmental impact, self-driving technology promises a transformative future. According to the World Health Organization, traffic accidents claim approximately 1.19 million lives each year, highlighting the urgent need for safer transportation alternatives.
Shared autonomous vehicle solutions, like those offered by Waymo and Moove, offer a groundbreaking opportunity to enhance urban mobility. These services can alleviate traffic congestion, improve road safety, and create more sustainable cities by reducing carbon emissions.
“Public transportation has transformed urban mobility over the past 15 years, but the core experience has remained largely unchanged,” said Lady Delano, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Moove. “Waymo One, Waymo’s safe, reliable, and convenient service, is leading the way in autonomous technology and, together, we are driving important change in urban mobility. We are proud to partner with Waymo, to contribute our operational experience to make this transformation possible.”
“We understand that mobility is not ‘one size fits all,’” Delano continued. “ While we are expanding into autonomous vehicles in the US, we remain deeply committed to serving our customers around the world, where we will continue to provide our financing solutions to underserved mobility entrepreneurs.”
