Waymo to launch first European robotaxi service in Munich in 2027
Waymo is pushing to launch a robotaxi service in Munich, aiming for a commercial ride-hailing rollout by late 2027. The company plans to map roads with human-driven cars, then conduct autonomous tests with safety operators before moving to driverless trials. Waymo said it is working with Germany’s Federal Motor Transport Authority and local authorities to secure permits and approvals. The move would be Waymo’s first entry into the EU.

Surge in self-driving taxis in city centres raises unexpected incident issues
As self-driving robotaxis are deployed more widely in real-world operations, cases are increasing in which the vehicles cause problems in unexpected situations. A growing number of so-called edge cases can disrupt traffic flow and sometimes create scenes that may threaten safety. Waymo has expanded its fleet and converted services in several U.S. cities to fully autonomous driving, but it has also carried out multiple federal recalls since December.
