DoorDash drone deliveries are first coming to northern California with Chipotle and Popeyes on board
DoorDash has revealed more details about its drone delivery program. Chipotle and Popeyes are among the first restaurant partners to sign up for DoorDash Air, which will initially be available in northern California. The company also offered up more details about its drone, which has six propellers and is said to have a similar cruising noise to that of a passing car when it's at delivery height. It designed the drone to "fit the communities we'll operate in." DoorDash noted around 80 percent of restaurant orders that are available to order through the platform are small and light enough for drone delivery. The company added that, based on estimates from initial tests, "we've seen delivery times from the restaurant to the consumer's door in under five minutes on average."
