Uber and Waymo will team up on robotaxi service in Phoenix area
Brothers91
Rivals Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) and Alphabet's (NASDAQ:GOOG) Waymo will work together on autonomous rides in the Phoenix, Arizona region. 
A new partnership announced on Tuesday between the former legal combatants will see Waymo make its driverless vehicles available to Uber (UBER) to pick up passengers and deliver food. It is unclear how many vehicles will be made available to Uber (UBER).
The deal is said to provide Waymo another avenue to expand a robotaxi service that it has been running in the Phoenix area since the late part of 2020 while competing to attract passengers from Uber cars.
Phoenix is the only major metropolitan area where a robotaxi service operate on its own, although San Francisco is getting very close. At over 180 square miles, Waymoâs Phoenix operations are noted to currently be the largest fully autonomous service area in the world.
"Fully autonomous driving is quickly becoming part of everyday life, and weâre excited to bring Waymo's incredible technology to the Uber platform," stated Uber CEO Dara Kohsrowshahi.
Shares of Uber (UBER) moved up 1.40% in premarket trading on Tuesday.
