Waymo will launch its fully autonomous ride-hailing service in Singapore by 2028, its first Southeast Asia market. The company partners with Singapore’s Ministry of Transport and Land Transport Authority.
An initial fleet of all-electric Jaguar I-PACE vehicles equipped with the fifth-generation Waymo Driver will arrive in the coming months.
During a “readiness phase” in 2027, trained autonomous specialists will manually drive vehicles as Waymo adapts its technology to Singapore’s roads and monsoon weather conditions.
Waymo intends to begin offering fully autonomous rides to the public through its app in 2028, subject to regulatory approvals. The expansion supports Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 and multimodal transit network.
