Partnering with Waymo

Today, we’re taking the next step in redefining urban mobility by announcing a strategic partnership with Waymo, the global leader in autonomous driving technology. This partnership marks a defining moment in our journey to revolutionise mobility as we know it, and places Moove at the forefront of the commercial AV revolution on a global scale. Moove will play a pivotal role in supporting Waymo’s expansion into Miami in 2026, while taking over existing fleet operations in Phoenix, one of Waymo’s most established markets, in 2025. 

Through this collaboration, Moove will deploy Waymo’s fleet of autonomous vehicles into the Waymo One service. From overseeing fleet operations and charging infrastructure, to optimising vehicle supply availability, Moove’s operational expertise will ensure a seamless, safe, and sustainable rider experience.

Imagine a future where our roads are not only safer, but smarter. According to the World Health Organization, road traffic crashes claim approximately 1.19 million lives each year, making them one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Autonomous vehicles promise a transformative future, addressing inefficiencies, safety concerns, and environmental challenges in traditional mobility systems. Shared autonomous ride hailing services offer a unique opportunity to reduce urban congestion, enhance safety, and transform cities into hubs of connectivity, efficiency, and sustainability.

Ladi Delano, Co-Founder and Co-CEO at Moove, said: “Ride hailing has transformed urban mobility over the past 15 years, yet the core experience has largely remained unchanged. Waymo’s safe, reliable, and convenient Waymo One service leads in autonomous technology, and together, we’re driving a major shift in urban mobility. We’re proud to partner with Waymo, bringing our operational expertise to make this transformation possible.”

At Moove, our vision is to build the world’s largest fleet and best in class technologies to power mobility platforms. We are transforming the future of Mobility as a Service by providing comprehensive fleet solutions across the mobility spectrum. We recognise that mobility isn’t a ‘one size fits all’. While we’re expanding into AVs in the U.S., we remain deeply committed to serving our customers around the world where we will continue to provide our unique financing solutions to underserved mobility entrepreneurs. 

Our flagship Drive-to-Own (DTO) product democratises access to vehicle ownership through our revolutionary revenue based financing model, enabling previously underserved mobility entrepreneurs to thrive. From the bustling streets of Lagos, to the winding roads of Bogotá, to date we’ve served over 30,000 mobility entrepreneurs globally, and positively impacted more than 100,000 lives through job creation and mobility access.

Our growth at Moove has been fuelled by our global partnership with Uber and the support of leading investors, including Uber, who participated in our Series B funding in 2024. Now, as we expand into autonomous vehicles and prepare for our upcoming operations in Phoenix and Miami, we’re building on the foundation of over 50 million trips completed in Moove financed vehicles. This expansion into autonomous vehicles builds on Moove’s success as a trusted partner of leading global mobility platforms. As we step into the next chapter of our journey, our mission remains to make mobility safer, more efficient, and accessible to all, while creating sustainable employment opportunities in the rapidly evolving mobility sector.

Phoenix is our launchpad. Miami is on the horizon. The US is now part of the Moove family. Here’s to the next step in shaping the future of urban mobility. We couldn’t be more excited to share it with you!
