11 More of the Most Fun Things We've Seen at CES

Visitors to CES this week had the opportunity to take a good look at an unusual local: a boxy little autonomous robotaxi designed and operated by Amazon subsidiary Zoox. Zoox has been testing on the Strip since November, though it began driving its purpose-built vehicle on Vegas public roads around its local headquarters back in summer 2023. This year, Zoox aims to begin offering service to the public, first though a "Zoox Explorer" program that allows outside riders to try the service for free. Unlike Waymo's robotaxis, which today are computerized Jaguar EVs, Zoox's AV doesn't have a steering wheel, driver's seat, or pedals. Its seats face inward, and the vehicle is designed to drive in either direction, fore or aft.
