Waymo Fleet More Than Triples In Size Year-over-Year, According to NHTSA Recall Data (fuelarc.com)

TL;DR: Between May 2025 and May 2026, Waymo’s recall-scope count of autonomous cabs rose from 1,212 vehicles to 3,791 vehicles.

That is more than a 3x increase in the Waymo fleet size in roughly one year, a major acceleration that dwarfs Tesla's faltering Robotaxi rollout.

If they keep growing at this pace they‘ll have a fleet of roughly 32.5 billion cars by 2040. Better invest in parking lots now folks!

Ironically, this will lead to a lower demand for parking.
