Waymo expects to begin driving manually operated electric Jaguar I-Pace vehicles around the Madrid region within days, opening a local testing phase ahead of its targeted 2027 start for passenger rides in Spain. The first stage will put human drivers behind the wheel. Trained local specialists are then expected to conduct supervised validation runs before Waymo moves toward offering rides. Waymo is coordinating with national, regional and local authorities in Spain as it prepares the rollout. Its plans include briefing emergency services and investing in local operations. Road safety groups FESVIAL and AESLEME have backed the expansion.
