Self-driving startup Waabi has spent the past five years becoming a dominant force in the world of autonomous trucking.
The Toronto-based venture raised $750 million in an oversubscribed Series C round co-led by Khosla Ventures and G2 Venture Partners, Waabi announced yesterday (Jan. 28).
The company has long specialized in autonomous trucking to transform the $1 trillion freight industry in North America.
Its new partnership with Uber, however, will see the startup venture into the crowded world of robotaxis.
