Amazon bringing Waymo competition in Denver with Zoox
Sep 29, 2026, 2:55 PM
With the autonomous driverless cab service Waymo just barely beginning operations in Denver, it may not be long before it gets its first taste of direct competition as Amazon is bringing Zoox service to Denver to begin test drives.
Zoox announced they will be bringing a test fleet of vehicles to Denver to begin training during the Winter months to experience heavy rain and snow and improve their robotaxi experience.
On Zoox website, they describe their vehicle as not being a car but “a robotaxi designed around you.” The interior includes charging pads, cupholders and plenty of room both for riders and for their bags and items.
The service has already begun in 12 cities such as Austin, Miami and San Francisco and most recently adding Houston and San Diego.
Waymo also typically tests their fleet in a city during the Winter season, but with Denver experiencing a warmer than normal Winter last year, they had to test their fleet in other cities last year before officially launching operations in Denver.
