Zoox to start charging for robotaxi rides in Las Vegas on August 10

Amazon-owned Zoox will begin charging for robotaxi rides in Las Vegas starting August 10, 2026, its first commercial paid service. A NHTSA Part 555 exemption authorizes fares in a purpose-built vehicle with no steering wheel or pedals. The two-year exemption caps deployment at 2,500 vehicles. Rides remain free in San Francisco and Austin.
