Whoosh looks like a gondola, but we're more than meets the eye. Our elevated autonomous vehicles take passengers on point to point trips, similar to a ride-hailing service - except we glide non-stop over any traffic below. We're happy to be a topic of discussion in Denver over the last week...

We're excited to be featured in @new-atlas.bsky.social today. In addition to highlighting Whoosh and the transportation benefits we bring, there's also a bit of our origin story with our delivery partners @swyftcities.bsky.social & details about the Switchback amusement ride system. Check it out.
This is not your grandad's cable car gondola. Born of an amusement ride and opening to the public in 2026, this remarkably clever kiwi idea offers quick, cheap, on-demand urban transit – that's much more direct and private than public transport.

This 🧵 from @brenttoderian.bsky.social will give you a lot of insight into why we're working hard to develop Whoosh. To all the innovators out there, keep pushing for solutions.
THREAD: I’m going to share this thread here to clearly state my perspective on electric vehicles, car dependency and better cities, for all those who frequently ask me about it, including media, elected leaders and many others. Here goes. Please share it frequently if you think it will help. 🧵#EVS

Whoosh® was recently featured in Fast Company along with Swyft Cities who license our technology as project delivery partners. This article covered an upcoming feasibility study for Sugar Land, Texas - a fast growing Houston suburb. www.fastcompany.com/91220696/sug...
How this growing Texas town became a testing ground for flying taxis and Uber-style gondolas
When widening highways will no longer do, the city of Sugar Land, southwest of Houston, is looking up for answers.

Very important research and perspectives for everyone in this industry of autonomous transportation solutions to take note of.
Automated transport is often talked about as being transformative for the independence and mobility of disabled ppl.

But inclusive design doesn’t happen by accident.

Interesting new research stresses the need for regulation and involvement of disabled ppl in vehicle & system design👇
