Launch of Autonomous Commercial Pilot Programme, with plans for autonomous solution powered by the leading technology stack from Plus.
Scania is today (12 March 2024) expanding its strategic development of autonomous hub-to-hub transport solutions, with the launch of an Autonomous Commercial Pilot Programme. As part of TRATON Group, Scania will also be involved in a new partnership with US-based Plus, which will integrate its Level 4, fully autonomous SuperDrive™ technology stack into Scania and TRATON Group vehicles.
The Scania Autonomous Commercial Pilot Programme is part of an increased focus on establishing customer-driven testing to demonstrate hub-to-hub technology, and creating scalable operational concepts that deliver real value in customers’ operations.
For safer, more efficient, more sustainable driving
Scania’s programme launch comes as customers look for trusted and reliable partners for developing and deploying autonomous vehicles within their own operations. This new solution stands out due to its adaptability to customers’ specific routes and transport profiles.
“We are committed to developing fully integrated autonomous solutions. This means technology that is fitted and supported directly from the factory and a solution that is designed to be operated by our customers in their existing infrastructure and operational flows,” says Peter Hafmar, Vice-President and Head of Autonomous Solutions.
The expectation is that Scania’s autonomous hub-to-hub solutions will help increase its customers’ operating efficiency, lower their transport emissions and improve road safety, while also addressing the growing global driver shortage. Read more
