Human taxi drivers are not coming to a city near you. Alphabet’s Waymo announced on Monday evening that it will launch robotaxi service in Dallas in a partnership with rental car giant Avis.
Avis will manage Waymo’s fleet, taking care of charging and maintenance, and the companies say they have plans to expand to more cities in the near future.
US plane maker Boeing delivered 44 jets in November, marking a 17% dip from October but a drastic recovery from its 13 deliveries in the same month last year amid its machinists’ strike.
Boeing, which closed its $4.7 billion acquisition of key supplier Spirit AeroSystems on Monday, has delivered 537 jets year to date in 2025, significantly ahead of the 348 it delivered last year. Earlier this month, the company said its recovery was “in full force” and it expects positive free cash flow in 2026.
European rival Airbus expanded its annual delivery lead in the month, handing 72 jets over to customers. The manufacturer has made 657 deliveries on the year so far, but recently cut its annual delivery target to 790 from 820 due to quality issues.
