Las Vegas Grand Prix visitors will soon have a robotaxi option, as Zoox has been named the event's official autonomous ride-hail partner. Zoox will offer rides to and from the race starting in 2027.
Why it matters
For valley residents, the arrangement adds another way to move around during race week, when Strip traffic and parking are already stretched thin. The rollout is a projection tied to 2027, so the details of service levels and pickup rules are still to be worked out.
Zoox robotaxis carry four passengers each and can travel up to 75 mph, according to the company's vehicle specifications. The partnership's scale, including how many vehicles will serve race week and what share of fans will use them, has not been disclosed.
The players
Zoox
Amazon-owned autonomous vehicle company running paid robotaxi service in Las Vegas and named the Grand Prix's official ride-hail partner.
Atlassian Williams F1 Team
Formula One team that has hosted Zoox race week activations at previous Las Vegas Grand Prix events.
The details
Zoox has been named the official autonomous ride-hail partner of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, with rides to and from the event starting in 2027. Fans will be dropped off and picked up at Grand Prix Plaza, at the northeast corner of Harmon Avenue and Koval Lane, where a dedicated zone will be set aside for Zoox operations. Zoox, which is owned by Amazon, has already launched paid rides in Las Vegas, running between major hotels, Area15, the Sphere and Harry Reid International Airport.

Beyond the Strip
Zoox's paid service already links the Strip's hotels and the airport, so the Grand Prix deal carries those routes into race week. It moves the robotaxi from a visitor convenience into a planned part of how the city handles one of its biggest weekends.
If you live near the Strip or plan to drive into Grand Prix week, expect the Harmon Avenue and Koval Lane area to take on robotaxi pickup traffic in 2027. Plan extra time for race-week trips and check Grand Prix Plaza pickup details before you go.
The takeaway
Robotaxis are becoming part of how the valley plans its biggest event weekends, not just a novelty for visitors. Watch for the 2027 race-week details on fares, vehicle counts and pickup procedures at Grand Prix Plaza.
What happens next
Zoox begins offering Grand Prix rides and Grand Prix Plaza pickups in 2027, the first race-week test of the partnership.
