Amazon's Zoox is expanding its autonomous vehicle testing to Atlanta, Georgia, aiming to eventually offer public rides. This marks the seventh city in the U.S. where Zoox is conducting trials. Following its strategic approach, Zoox will first map the roads and traffic conditions using modified Toyota Highlanders before deploying its self-driving technology. The announcement coincides with Waymo's upcoming ride-hailing services using robotaxis in the same city, emphasizing competition in the autonomous vehicle space. Zoox continues to test in California and Las Vegas, planning public rides by year-end.
Zoox is set to begin mapping and data gathering in Atlanta, a significant step toward launching its self-driving robotaxi service in the city.
In a methodical rollout, Zooxâs first phase involves using modified vehicles to collect crucial infrastructure data before testing its autonomous technology.
