Waymo's fleet of self-driving minivans to go up 100 times
Google spinoff Waymo would be buying an additional 62,000 minivans from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to be deployed as robot taxis. The deal, reportedly worth over $1 billion, would boost Waymo's 600-minivan fleet by over 100 times. This comes two months after Waymo ordered 20,000 fully electric SUVs from Jaguar, and announced expansion plans for a commercial ride-hailing service by 2020.
