The chief executive officer of Zoox, Amazon.com Inc.’s self-driving unit, expects autonomous vehicles to be present in cities “sooner than people expect,” but stopped short of saying when her own company’s product would appear on roads.
“We don’t get into dates at Zoox; we prefer to show not tell,” Aicha Evans, speaking virtually, said at the Bloomberg Technology Summit in London on Wednesday. She added that “testing has already started.”
The bigger challenge, she said, will be expanding autonomous infrastructure beyond initial cities and maintaining a user experience that’s consistent.
