It looks like the geniuses at ride sharing giant Uber have done it again. The company scored a huge victory for progress on Tuesday morning when they announced that every car in their self-driving car fleet is a woman.

“Women have always been an integral part of Uber, and now, with the advent of female self driving cars, they are even more integral,” company CEO Travis Kalanick told reporters at a press event.

“The women who work at this company are smart, curious, strong, fast, and ambitious, and they inspire me every day. Some of my closest friends at this company are women.”

“Most of these cars identify as Samanthas,” confirmed Uber engineering lead Porter Frieze, gesturing towards the company’s Pittsburg fleet.

“These cars, who are women, are going to help us move transportation technology forward.”

“And you know what? I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
