"Zoox will deploy its driverless electric pods in Austin, Texas, and Miami, Florida, later this year, adding two more cities to its service area. The purpose-built self-driving EVs will start reaching more areas of San Francisco and Las Vegas, as the startup expands its footprint in the two cities it's already operating in."
"In Austin, where rival robotaxi operators Tesla and Waymo are already offering rides, Zoox is targeting a soft rollout at first, with availability limited to company employees, their families, and friends. The waitlist will open soon, and the company's Zoox Explorers early rider program will launch in Austin and Miami later this year."
"In Las Vegas, Zoox's service area will expand to include the Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) and high-traffic events at Sphere and T-Mobile Arena. Since launching public rides in September of last year, Zoox has more than doubled its service area in Sin City, adding the Las Vegas Convention Center and a majority of the big hotels along the Strip."
"In San Francisco, the company plans to quadruple the geofenced area where it offers rides to waitlist members. Zoox said its autonomous EVs will reach a large portion of the eastern half of the city, including the Marina, North Beach, and Chinatown."
Zoox, Amazon's robotaxi company, is set to expand its service area by launching in Austin, Texas, and Miami, Florida, later this year. The company will also increase its presence in San Francisco and Las Vegas. Initially, rides in Austin will be limited to company employees and their families. Zoox has been testing its technology since 2024 and will deploy purpose-built driverless electric pods. The service area in Las Vegas will include the airport and major venues, while San Francisco will see a significant expansion of its geofenced area.
