Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
Zoox’s robotaxi gets a comfort upgrade, because what’s autonomous driving without a softer seat? The company also tweaked the color scheme, because lighter colors are the new black. And, of course, they threw in some improved comms for when things inevitably go wrong. Because “better microphone and speaker” is exactly what you want to hear when your self-driving car breaks down. The robotaxi is still a robotaxi, just with more cushioning.
