News Summary

• Waymo is testing a delivery service with DoorDash in the Phoenix, Arizona, area.
• The self-driving car company is known for its robotaxis, but it has tested how its tech could be used for delivery.
• DoorDash has its own in-house autonomous vehicle tech team that developed and produced an autonomous delivery bot called Dot.
• The deal with Waymo won’t involve DoorDash’s Dot vehicle, however.
• Instead, food or groceries will be placed in the trunk of a Waymo vehicle — a driverless Jaguar I-Pace.
• From here, the customer will have to retrieve the items from the trunk via the DoorDash app.
