Zoox is revolutionizing transportation. No driver, no steering wheel, no front or back — just pure innovation. In just a few years, they've created the future of urban mobility. Here’s how Amazon’s $1 billion bet is rewriting the rules of the road. In 2020, Zoox introduced a game-changing vehicle designed from scratch to transform urban transportation. Unlike traditional cars adapted for autonomy, Zoox’s fully autonomous vehicle was built with efficiency, safety, and rider comfort as top priorities. Here’s what makes it unique: Bi-Directional Driving: It moves smoothly in both directions, eliminating the need for U-turns and enhancing navigation. Four-Wheel Steering: Designed for tight city streets, it handles sharp turns with ease. 360-Degree Sensors: Advanced cameras and LiDAR provide unmatched safety by removing blind spots. Instead of focusing on driver control, Zoox reimagines passenger experience. Its spacious, lounge-style interior removes steering wheels and pedals, seating passengers face-to-face for a more social, comfortable ride. Powering this innovation is a robust 133 kWh battery that enables all-day, zero-emission travel — perfect for sustainable cities. In 2020, Amazon acquired Zoox for over $1 billion, betting on a future powered by autonomous robotaxis. Rather than selling cars, Zoox aims to operate a 24/7 robotaxi service, turning cutting-edge technology into a scalable transportation solution. Zoox’s journey proves that real innovation comes from rethinking systems entirely. By redesigning vehicles, technology, and business models from the ground up, Zoox is leading the way toward smarter, safer, and greener urban mobility.
