Waymo's purpose-built Ojai robotaxi, previously limited to select riders since May, is now open to all riders in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Phoenix as of August 19, 2026. The vehicle adds accessibility features like embedded Braille and screen-reader support plus an in-cabin Gemini assistant, and Waymo plans to bring it to Denver, San Diego and Las Vegas later this year.
