It looks like after the breakup of Zenuity, @volvocars is giving up on developing L4 #automateddriving in-house and throwing in its lot with @Waymo #1 on @WeAreGHInsights AV leaderboard https://t.co/Arnyl1sMZNhttps://t.co/PPVR1onQC2

Volvo will integrate Waymo’s autonomous driving tech into a fleet of electric robotaxis that it will deploy at some point in the future. Deal also applies to Volvo’s two subrands, its electric performance company Polestar and its Chinese brand Lynk & Co. https://t.co/lAOpBZUEo6

IMO, $GOOG/Waymo's deal with Volvo is pretty notable for a couple of reasons:

1) It's the first deal in which a major automaker is buying Waymo's hardware/software.
2) Volvo is working with $NVDA on Level 2+ cars, but chose Waymo for Level 4 cars.https://t.co/pZYyb7GC3E
