Testing autonomous trucks in Texas


Paccar has teamed up with Aurora and Fedex to launch a commercial pilot testing autonomous trucks in line haul trucking operations in USA. This is the first collaboration of its kind between a truck manufacturer, an autonomous technology developer and a logistics provider.

 

Paccard’s trucks configured with the Aurora autonomous Driver will haul Fedex loads between Dallas and Houston, a 800 km round trip. The trucks will operate autonomously, with a backup driver for additional safety.

 

In January 2021, Paccar started a strategic alliance with Aurora to develop, test and commercialise autonomous Peterbilt and Kenworth trucks. The strategic alliance will integrate Paccard’s autonomous vehicle platform with the Aurora Driver. (ben)
