丰田与Waymo正式锁定：日本首个量产级无人车，2027年驶出高冈工厂
Toyota and Waymo Lock In: Japan’s First Mass-Built Robotaxi Rolls Off the Takaoka Line in 2027
摘要 :
丰田与Waymo把2025年4月的意向推进到造车阶段：Waymo自动驾驶硬件将进入丰田高冈工厂完成一体化装配，
2027年在日本启动L4级无人网约车初期运营，英国及其他Waymo市场随后跟进。
基底车装配与自动驾驶硬件集成两道工序在同一厂房屋顶内完成，工厂位于爱知县丰田市高冈，双方将其定位为日本首个以大批量国产车辆为底座的无人网约车服务。Waymo联合CEO Dmitri Dolgov称，在其运营区域内，按“严重碰撞受伤”口径计算，安全性最多可达人类驾驶员的20倍，并直言选择丰田是看重其安全、可靠与品质口碑。丰田汽车董事会成员、执行副总裁（Executive Vice President）Hiroki Nakajima表示，安全技术的价值在于尽可能触达更多人，且“没有任何一家公司能独自实现零交通事故”。面向乘客的bZ4X增加了自动门、电动尾门、氛围灯和更充裕的后排腿部空间，便于上下车。双方还在探索面向私家丰田车的自动驾驶技术，并将与Woven by Toyota
一起研究如何把Waymo真实运营数据用于改善其他道路使用者的安全。
Summary :
Toyota and Waymo moved their April 2025 intent into a build plan: Waymo’s self-driving hardware will be integrated inside Toyota’s own Takaoka plant, with an initial Level 4 robotaxi service in Japan in 2027 and the UK and other Waymo markets to follow.
Base-vehicle assembly and AV hardware integration happen under one roof at the Takaoka plant in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, which the two firms frame as the first Japan-based autonomous ride-hailing service built on high-volume domestically manufactured vehicles. Waymo co-CEO Dmitri Dolgov said its operating areas show the service to be up to 20 times safer than human drivers on serious crash injuries, and credited Toyota’s safety, reliability and quality record as the reason for the choice. Executive vice-president and board member Hiroki Nakajima said safety technology matters most when it reaches the largest number of people, adding that no single company can reach zero traffic accidents alone. The customer-facing bZ4X adds automatic doors, a power liftgate, ambient lighting and generous rear legroom to make boarding and exit easier. The pair will also keep probing autonomous driving for privately owned Toyotas, and work with Woven by Toyota on whether Waymo’s real-world operational data can be used to improve safety for other road users.
入选理由 :
唯一一例顶级整车集团向AI驾驶员开放总装体系、且首次以国产量产车作为日本无人网约车底座。
Why Selected:
It is the only release in the window where a top-three global OEM opens its assembly plant to an AI driver, and the first time a robotaxi service in Japan is anchored on domestically mass-produced vehicles.
