Beginning this year, Gatik will integrate its autonomous driving technology into Isuzu medium-duty N-Series trucks to produce SAE Level 4 delivery vehicles.
The $3 million project retrofits autonomous technology from NuPort Robotics on semi-tractor trailers for middle-mile runs around Greater Toronto.
Gatik and Walmart are undertaking the first-ever truly driverless operation for the supply chain’s middle mile, according to Gatik.
Lion Electric will deliver 10 battery-electric trucks to Amazon. The first two will be delivered this year.
The middle mile in the supply chain is ripe for efficiency gains, while its repeatable routes make it a fit for early autonomous transportation adoption. Gatik’s Sam Saad explains when, how, and why.
Octillion Power Systems is collaborating with Lightning Systems to produce Class 6 electric trucks (up to 12.5 tons) capable of supporting “middle-mile” delivery logistics between warehouses and distribution centers.
The autonomous vehicle is intended for fixed, repeatable routes between distribution centers and stores, which reduces autonomous travel’s problematic “edge cases.”
A collaboration between Plug Power and Lightning Systems enables both companies to offer an electric, fuel cell-powered Class 6 truck capable of supporting middle-mile delivery logistics between warehouses and distribution centers.
