Amazon's robotaxi unit Zoox, owned by Amazon, will start testing its autonomous vehicles in Austin and Miami, deploying test fleet of retrofitted Toyota Highlanders with human drivers in small areas near business and entertainment districts. This expansion marks Zoox's first trial sites outside the western United States, with previous operations in San Francisco, Las Vegas, and Seattle. The move comes amid an NHTSA investigation into 500 Zoox vehicles after two crashes, while other self-driving companies like Cruise and Waymo are also under scrutiny.
