As for the algorithm, we provide AutoX with a rich toolchain, cloud and end service system to create a sustainable and efficient ecological collaboration system. "
The Founder and CEO of AutoX, Jianxiong Xiao said, "With the fully driverless RoboTaxi is becoming a reality in China, passengers will have more free time in the car.
