Alphabet already has a profitable artificial intelligence (AI) business, a rapidly scaling cloud platform, and one of the most advanced robotaxi operations in Waymo. SpaceX adds another layer of upside and further strengthens the company's long-term growth story.
Goldman Sachs expects the global robotaxi market to be worth nearly $415 billion in 2035, with the U.S. accounting for nearly $48 billion of that opportunity. This rapidly expanding robotaxi opportunity may be one of the crucial reasons to hold Alphabet over the long term.
Alphabet's Waymo is no longer just an experimental autonomous-driving project inside the company's Other Bets segment. In February 2026, Waymo raised $16 billion at a valuation of $126 billion, nearly triple its reported $45 billion valuation in 2024. That gives investors a better sense of how valuable Waymo could become for Alphabet.
