Waymo, the Alphabet company that spun out of Google's former self-driving car division, is partnering with some of the country's largest companies to expand how many people ride in its self-driving vehicles.
The partnerships with five companies, including Walmart, Autonation and Avis, will feature Waymo autonomous vehicles picking up customers and driving them to various locations in the Phoenix area. In some cases, customers will be offered savings or deals in order to be shuttled around in Waymo vehicles.
