I tried to order a Zoox at CES this year from the Cosmopolitan. Apparently Zoox was only operating in limited pickup areas and the Cosmo wasn't one of them. I instead climbed into a Lyft Black Suburban for the ride back to my hotel.
After seeing one drop off passengers at the Wynn hotel I decided that taking one might not be a great idea.
The Zoox car looks like a fish tank on wheels. I don't know what type of crash testing Zoox has performed, but if a Suburban hits one of these things it won't be pretty.
Followed one (Waymo) through downtown ATL a few weeks ago. Walking would have been FAR faster (in the first place).
