Waymo Is Taking Its Robotaxis to Singapore in 2028
Waymo has announced its next international expansion target, and it is a surprising but clever one. The Alphabet-owned robotaxi company says it will launch commercial service in Singapore in 2028, with vehicles beginning to arrive in the city-state in 2027 for testing and preparation. It is the company's first confirmed international launch outside the United States, and the choice of Singapore says a lot about how Waymo is thinking about global growth.
Key Takeaways
- Waymo will launch commercial robotaxi service in Singapore in 2028, its first international market
- Waymo vehicles will begin arriving in Singapore in 2027 for testing and preparation
- Waymo completed over four million paid rides in the US in the first half of 2026
- Singapore covers 733 square kilometres with a population of approximately 5.9 million, and has run AV trials since 2016
