Hyundai Motor and Waymo have agreed to a multiyear, strategic partnership that includes the self-driving company adding the South Korean automaker's Ioniq 5 electric vehicle to its robotaxi fleet.

Waymo’s next robotaxi will be the Hyundai Ioniq 5. The two companies are forming a multiyear partnership that will see the EV added to Waymo’s fleet in a few years.

Alphabet's Waymo will add electric vehicles from South Korea's Hyundai Motor to its robotaxi fleet, the companies said on Friday, as Waymo expands in the United States.

On-road testing with Waymo-enabled Ioniq 5s will begin by late 2025, and they are expected to become available to robotaxi riders in the following years.
