Amap and AutoX jointly launched driverless taxis, which are only tested in Shanghai and are equipped with safety personnel.

Recently, AutoNavi and driverless technology developer AutoX reached a cooperation agreement to jointly launch driverless taxis in Shanghai. However, due to technical and traffic regulations, the project has not been fully launched yet.

In terms of details, if you want to experience a driverless taxi, you must actively search for "driverless car" in Gaode Maps, and only after being reviewed and there are driverless taxis nearby can you experience it. It is worth noting that in order to ensure safety, although it is called a "driverless taxi", there will still be a safety officer in each car to intervene when necessary to avoid traffic accidents.

It is understood that AutoX was founded in early 2018 and focuses on the research and development of camera-based unmanned driving systems. Just one year after its establishment, AutoX received US$100 million in financing led by giants such as Alibaba and Chaoshan Capital.

At the beginning of 2019, AutoX released the L4 level autonomous driving fusion perception system. And in mid-2019, AutoX also became a partner of BYD Qin Pro.
