总部位于美国匹兹堡的自动驾驶公司Aurora近日宣布,已完成Aurora Driver自动驾驶技术的设计、架构和硬件,并通过与德国汽车供应商大陆集团的合作,计划到2027年生产数千辆无人驾驶运输卡车。 Aurora目前约有30辆自动运输卡车在德克萨斯州的道路上运行,每周为FedEx和Uber Freight等客户运送75份货物。
Aurora由Uber、特斯拉和Waymo于2017年创立,旨在推动自动驾驶技术的发展。该公司计划在2025年将无人驾驶卡车数量扩大到约100辆,并最终出售给其他公司。2023年4月,Aurora首次宣布与大陆集团成立合资企业,以更有意义的方式扩大其制造计划。此外,该公司还与沃尔沃和帕卡达成协议,在其卡车上使用自动驾驶技术。
根据规划,到2024年底,Aurora计划让19辆无人驾驶卡车在从休斯顿到达拉斯的240英里(约386.24公里)路段上行驶。截至2027年,该公司希望实现大规模生产,达到千辆规模。
Aurora的发言人表示,该公司已完成了Aurora Driver自动驾驶技术的设计、架构和硬件,并通过与德国汽车供应商大陆集团的合作,有望在2027年实现无人驾驶卡车的规模化生产。这一举措将有助于推动自动驾驶技术在运输领域的应用,进一步降低物流成本,提高运输效率。

Headquartered in Pittsburgh, US, autonomous driving company Aurora recently announced that it has completed the design, architecture, and hardware of its Aurora Driver technology and plans to produce thousands of driverless transport trucks through a collaboration with German automotive supplier Continental Group by 2027. Aurora currently has about 30 autonomous trucks operating on Texas roads, delivering 75 packages for clients such as FedEx and Uber Freight each week.
Founded in 2017 by Uber, Tesla, and Waymo, Aurora aims to advance autonomous driving technology. The company plans to expand the number of driverless trucks to about 100 by 2025 and eventually sell them to other companies. In April 2023, Aurora announced its first joint venture with Continental Group to expand its manufacturing plan in a more meaningful way. Additionally, the company has reached agreements with Volvo and Paccar to use autonomous driving technology in their trucks.
According to the plan, by the end of 2024, Aurora intends to have 19 driverless trucks operating on a 240-mile (approximately 386.24 kilometers) route between Houston and Dallas. By 2027, the company hopes to achieve large-scale production and reach a thousand vehicles.
An Aurora spokesperson said that the company has completed the design, architecture, and hardware of the Aurora Driver technology and aims to achieve large-scale deployment of driverless trucks through its collaboration with Continental Group by 2027. This move will contribute to the application of autonomous driving technology in the transportation field, further reducing logistics costs and improving transport efficiency.
