MENLO PARK, Calif., April 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Cyngn Inc. (the “Company” or “Cyngn”) (Nasdaq: CYN), today announced its initial deployment with Polaris Inc.

“Deploying with Polaris reflects our continued traction in the automotive and vehicle manufacturing sectors,” said Lior Tal, Cyngn’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Polaris is a well-known brand for various offroad vehicles that we would often think of as DriveMod integration targets for Cyngn, so we are excited at the product validation that comes from a leading OEM applying Cyngn technology to its own vehicle manufacturing processes.”
