Trucking technology is moving fast right now — artificial intelligence, connected vehicles, electric trucks, advanced safety systems — and it can be, well, a lot.
For fleets, the challenge is figuring out what’s real, what’s hype, and what’s worth investing in.
In this episode of HDT Talks Trucking, we talk with Erik Neandross, president of TRC’s Clean Transportation Group and organizer of ACT Expo, about where things really stand today — and where they’re headed next.
We get into:
- How fleets are actually using AI today
- The rise of “software-defined vehicles”
- The potential of telematics data
- How safety technology — including AI-driven systems — is evolving
- What’s changed in the electric truck market
- Renewable natural gas for trucking
- How smaller fleets can start without getting overwhelmed.
