Zoox Robotaxi Launches in Las Vegas: A New Self-Driving Option
Imagine a self-driving car service like Uber, but with a special car!
Amazon's Zoox company has launched its robotaxi in Las Vegas.
You can ride for free between popular spots using an app.
The car is built from scratch, with no steering wheel and seats facing each other.
It can drive in either direction.
This is a way for Zoox to let people try out the technology and get ready to compete with other companies that are developing their own self-driving cars.
They hope to expand to more cities like San Francisco, Austin and Miami after learning from the Las Vegas experience.
Amazon-owned Zoox has launched a robotaxi service in Las Vegas.
Rides are currently free, with pickups at popular destinations.
The Zoox app manages ride requests, real-time updates, and assistance.
Zoox's car is custom-built, with a unique design, without a steering wheel.
The company plans to expand to additional U.S. cities in the future.
