Waymo mulls cut from Uber as robotaxi tensions surge

Alphabet’s Waymo is exploring an exit from its Uber partnership amid a fierce robotaxi lobbying battle and mounting tensions over rollout strategies. Waymo plans to operate in Austin and Atlanta independently from January 2028 when contracts permit, while Uber says it will continue to offer Waymo services through May 2028. Waymo runs about 3,800 vehicles across ten cities and recently raised $16 billion at a $126 billion valuation to fund expansion, intensifying the split’s potential impact on Uber’s autonomous ambitions as both sides push for favorable regulation and control over co-operated markets amid disputes over service quality, routing, and costs.

Ford bets on rally DNA with five European models and new partnerships

Ford plans a five‑model European rollout for 2026–2029 to refresh its lineup after discontinuing the Fiesta and Focus, including two small EVs, two crossovers with multiple powertrains, and a Europe‑specific Bronco.
