Amazon's self-driving start-up Zoox will scale up production next year as it accelerates plans for a commercial rollout of its fleet of robotaxis in the US.

The company will open a new site in California's Bay Area to expand its footprint beyond a current small production facility in Fremont, Zoox co-founder Jesse Levinson told the newspaper, reports Financial Times.
