自駕車業者Waymo上周五(10/25)宣布,已完成由母公司Alphabet領投的C輪增資,募得了56億美元的款項。

現階段Waymo旗下約有超過700輛自駕車,搭載該公司所開發的Waymo Driver駕駛技術,在舊金山、洛杉磯、鳳凰城和奧斯汀等城市提供Waymo One無人計程車服務。今年8月,Waymo One每周的付費旅程次數已超過10萬次,是去年的10倍。此外,Waymo也與Uber簽署了合作協議,包括Uber用戶可透過Uber平臺呼叫Waymo車輛,以及將Waymo Driver自動駕駛技術整合到Uber的貨物運輸服務上。

Waymo表示,新資金將用來拓展舊金山、鳳凰城和洛杉磯的Waymo One叫車服務,以及在奧斯汀及亞特蘭大擴大與Uber的合作;另也將用來繼續開發Waymo Driver,以於未來支援各種不同的商業應用。

此次的增資都來自Waymo的原始股東,除了Alphabet之外,還包括Andreessen Horowitz、Fidelity、Perry Creek、Silver Lake、Tiger Global及Rowe Price。

Waymo為美國無人駕駛計程車的領頭羊,其競爭對手還包括通用汽車(GM)旗下的Cruise,Cruise目前正在舊金山與鳳凰城等地經營無人駕駛計程車服務,且擁有1,000臺車輛,以及由現代汽車( Hyundai Motor)與Aptiv合資的Motional,Motional主要以現代的IONIQ電動車來提供無人駕駛計程車服務,目前主要據點為拉斯維加斯與波士頓。
