Any industry insiders know how Cruise is doing compared to Waymo and Zoox in SF? It seems Cruise is hyperfocused on SF.
- clpm4j 4y agoNot an industry insider, but as an SF resident I tend to see far more Waymo vehicles on the road. A decent number of Cruise vehicles (although maybe they cluster in FiDi/SoMA areas in which case I wouldn't see them). Very few Zoox.
- staticassertion 4y agoThe waymo vehicles are much more recent though. All of a sudden they're all over.
- jseliger 4y agoIt seems Cruise is hyperfocused on SF There are three Phoenix-area Wal-Marts from which one can order delivery from a Cruise vehicle: https://www.getcruise.com/walmartdelivery https://www.getcruise.com/walmartdelivery. I also see what I assume are Cruise test vehicles out and about.
- AlotOfReading 4y agoCruise's basic theory was that the best way to initially scale testing wasn't to build a bigger fleet, but instead to test in busier environments where long tail events are more frequent. There was still testing in a few other locales (primarily Arizona and Michigan), but a lot of the focus was on SF as a result.
