About Us
Cruise is building the world’s most advanced self-driving vehicles to safely connect people with the places, things, and experiences they care about. Since our 2013 founding in San Francisco, we have hired over 1,600 talented individuals and have raised $10B+ in capital commitments from General Motors, Honda, Microsoft, Softbank, Walmart, T. Rowe Price, and others. Through our partnerships with General Motors and Honda, we are a self-driving company with fully integrated manufacturing at scale, building all-electric, zero-emission, self-driving vehicles that will help save lives, reimagine cities, reduce carbon pollution, redefine time in transit, and restore freedom of movement for individuals who live in dense urban settings.
Together, we believe our world-class partners, deep resources, and technology approach of testing in a complex urban environment will help shave years off of our timeline to launch all-electric, self-driving vehicles at scale.

What is your organization’s official name?
Cruise.
Where are your offices located?
We have offices in San Francisco, Pasadena, Bellevue, and Phoenix.
Where are you testing Cruise self-driving cars?
Our cars are primarily testing on the road in San Francisco, CA, navigating some of the most complex and unpredictable driving environments in the United States. We look forward to introducing this amazing technology to more communities soon.
Why did you choose to test self-driving cars in San Francisco?
We test our technology in San Francisco because our vehicles encounter construction, cyclists, pedestrians, and six-way intersections up to 47 times more frequently than in suburban environments. We believe this approach will minimize the amount of time needed to safely qualify our cars for commercial deployment.
