Hello Toronto – Waymo Is En Route
Hello Toronto! Waymo is En Route October 16, 2026 Company News The Waymo Team
Waymo is officially heading to Canada! We’re laying the groundwork for our fully autonomous ride-hailing service in Toronto, investing in local facilities and jobs, with the goal of welcoming our first riders in 2028.
In the coming days, you’ll start to see Waymo vehicles on the streets of Toronto as we begin driving manually. We are taking a rigorous, phased, safety-first approach starting with high-definition mapping of local street networks and testing with trained autonomous specialists behind the wheel. This validation period will ensure the Waymo Driver adapts seamlessly to Toronto’s distinct driving conditions.
