Whoosh® combines the best parts of ride-hailing services with elements of the urban gondola industry and the efficiency of autonomous EVs to create an entirely new elevated transportation mode. Riders can hail or pre-book an autonomous electric vehicle that speeds along elevated guideways to the nearest station for rider pick up. Once on board, riders are taken to their chosen location, gliding non-stop above the traffic below. Whoosh originates from New Zealand-based Whoosh Hold LP.
