Safety is paramount, with rigorous testing and collaboration with regulatory bodies to meet high standards. Additionally, Zoox's vehicles are fully electric, promoting sustainability by reducing emissions. The company also develops a user-friendly ride-hailing platform that uses data analytics to improve routing and reduce wait times. Zoox aims to enhance urban mobility while prioritizing safety and environmental responsibility.
