AutoExpreso (Template:Lang-en) is an electronic toll collection system used on tollways in Puerto Rico.[1] The system uses passive transponders (similar to SunPass Mini in Florida) where payment status is indicated by a light at the toll plazas. AutoExpreso transponders can be replenished at all Puma and select Total stations in Puerto Rico or at designated replenishment lanes (designated with a green "R") at select toll plazas.[2]
In 2012, AutoExpreso became the exclusive form of payment on most of Puerto Rico's tollways, with cash no longer being accepted. However, until 2015, cash was still accepted on PR-5 and PR-22 due to the privatization of those tollways.
In addition to window transponders, a card form of AutoExpreso known as MovilCash is also available. MovilCash cards can be replenished at lanes designated with "R+". As of 2017, MovilCash replenishment lanes are not currently available on PR-22 and PR-5.
AutoExpreso is not interoperable with other electronic toll collection systems outside Puerto Rico (such as E-ZPass in the northeastern United States or SunPass in Florida).
