Zoox to Begin Charging for Driverless Taxi Rides in Las Vegas

Amazon-owned Zoox starts charging for robotaxi rides in Las Vegas on August 10, 2026, its first paid service. A NHTSA Part 555 exemption permits fares in a purpose-built vehicle lacking a steering wheel or pedals. The two-year exemption caps deployment at 2,500 vehicles. Rides remain free in San Francisco and Austin.
