Leadership Comments

“Whether a vehicle is driven or autonomous, the need to solve for congestion and cost per trip doesn’t change.

I am thrilled by the incredible support of our partners and our ability to fast track the development of our autonomous vehicle platform," said Chris Yu, Co-Founder and President of ALSO.
