Amazon-owned autonomous vehicle startup Zoox has officially opened its first full-scale robotaxi production facility in Hayward, California. Spanning over 220,000 square feet, the facility is designed to support vehicle integration, software testing, and assembly at a scale of up to 10,000 units annually. This is a pivotal moment for Zoox as it moves from prototype to production, aiming to compete with rivals like Waymo, Cruise, and Tesla. The robotaxi is a fully autonomous, bidirectional vehicle with no steering wheel, optimized for urban mobility. The Hayward facility includes simulation labs, AI training environments, and charging stations. Initial commercial deployments are expected in Las Vegas and San Francisco by the end of 2025, followed by expansions into Austin and Miami. With Amazon's logistics expertise backing it, Zoox is uniquely positioned to lead the future of driverless fleets. The new facility is not only a production hub but also a training and R&D center for future innovation in AI mobility.
