From demos to daily transport: How Las Vegas is turning autonomy into real urban infrastructure

February 9, 2026 by Sam Francis

While many cities are still piloting autonomous transport in tightly controlled environments, Las Vegas is moving more aggressively – positioning itself as one of the most visible real-world laboratories for next-generation mobility in the United States.

Across the Strip and beyond, robotaxis, remotely operated vehicles, automated shuttles, and tunnel-based transport systems are shifting autonomy from experimental deployments toward everyday infrastructure capable of moving residents, workers, and tourists.

Taken together, these initiatives suggest a coordinated – if not formally centralized – push toward embedding intelligent transport directly into the city’s operational fabric. If there is a central co-ordinating organization, it’s probably the Clark County Office of Community and Economic Development, Nevada, home of the Las Vegas Strip.

Panasonic Energy enters robotaxi market with battery deal with Zoox

November 27, 2025 by David Edwards

Panasonic Energy, a business unit of the Panasonic Group, has signed an agreement with Zoox, the Amazon-owned autonomous ride-hailing company, to supply cylindrical lithium-ion batteries to power its robotaxi fleet deployments.

Under the multi-year-agreement, Panasonic Energy will deliver its latest 2170 batteries beginning in early 2026 to support Zoox’s growing robotaxi service and operations.

Zoox has created a purpose-built robotaxi that gives the world a better way to ride, and recently opened its first robotaxi serial production facility in Hayward, California, to produce these vehicles at scale. [Read more…] about Panasonic Energy enters robotaxi market with battery deal with Zoox

Zoox says its robotaxi is ‘first in the world to operate on public roads’

February 16, 2023 by David Edwards

Autonomous mobility-as-a-service company, Zoox, has completed what it describes as “a key milestone” – deploying “the world’s first purpose-built robotaxi on open public roads with passengers”.

On February 11, 2023, Zoox conducted the first run of its employee shuttle service in Foster City, California, marking “the first time in history” a purpose-built autonomous robotaxi without traditional driving controls carried passengers on open public roads.

To reach this milestone, Zoox completed rigorous testing on private roads and received approval from the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to operate its robotaxi on the state’s public roads. [Read more…] about Zoox says its robotaxi is ‘first in the world to operate on public roads’
