Swedish company Einride has signed a deal with DP World to create a fleet of electric and autonomous trucks at Dubai’s Jebel Ali port.
In 2019, Swedish startup Einride became the first company in the world to operate a driverless electric truck on a public road. Unlike many of its competitors, it had no safety driver on board — although it was supervised remotely by a human who could take over the controls at any time. Five years on, the market for autonomous trucks is worth over $35 billion, according to Fortune Business Insights, and is projected to more than double by 2032.
“We’ve taken a different route compared to other autonomous players in that we have been obsessed with creating magical AI, optimizing transport and a gradual transition into making this change happen,” he added. This software component is equipped on both of the company’s offerings — electric trucks with a driver inside, or cabless trucks that are fully autonomous. But this distinction doesn’t warrant too much focus, according to Falck.
