\n Amazon has agreed to buy California-based self-driving startup Zoox in a deal reported to be worth more than $1 billion that gives it options to use autonomous technology in either ride-hailing or its delivery network.<\/p>\n

The world\u2019s largest online retailer has stepped up its investment in the car sector, participating in self-driving car startup Aurora Innovation\u2019s $530 million funding round early last year.<\/p>\n

While Amazon and Zoox did not disclose the financial terms of the deal, the Information said on Thursday, citing sources, that Amazon had agreed to pay over $1 billion to buy Zoox. The Information\u2019s report did not mention the exact purchase price.<\/p>\n

Zoox CEO Aicha Evans and its co-founder and chief technology officer, Jesse Levinson, will continue to lead the company as a standalone business, the companies said.<\/p>\n

A majority of Zoox investors are getting their money back, according to the Information.<\/p>\n

Zoox did not immedia<\/a>tely respond to a Reuters request for comment.<\/p>\n

Lux Capital, DFJ and Atlassian co-founder Michael Cannon-Brooks are some of the investors in the six-year-old startup.<\/p>\n

The Wall Street Journal reported last month that the companies were in advanced talks and the deal could value Zoox at less than the $3.2 billion it achieved in a funding round in 2018.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
