robotaxi zoox

The rapidly growing family of electric transport modules has been supplemented by an autonomous capsule-robotaxi Zoox from Amazon Zoox. Zoox is a former American startup engaged in the development of self-driving cars, it was acquired by Amazon earlier this year.

The Zoox Robotaxi is a very compact (the distance between the front and rear wheels is only 3.63 m) bi-directional (equally moves forward and backward) electric traction vehicle designed for urban environments.

The electric car is equipped with four inward-facing seats, a new airbag system specially adapted for bi-directional vehicles. Since this is a fully autonomous car, it does not have a steering wheel. The power source is a 133-kilowatt battery designed for 16 hours of continuous operation. Autonomous driving robotaxi provides a system that includes cameras, radar and lidar. The Zooc can accelerate up to 120 km/h. While nothing is reported about where and when Zoox will begin to make the first passenger flights. This will become known after the end of the test tests, which are now taking place in Las Vegas, San Francisco and Foster City.
