Russian company Navio announced a partnership with the Chinese Sinotruk Trucks manufacturer. Together, they will develop an autonomous tractor to adapt to Russian roads and climatic conditions. Citrak brand trucks have already become a sales leader in the segments of Russia and are now planned to be equipped with autonomous driving technologies.
The production of such machines will reduce the cost of cargo transportation and increase their safety. Navio stressed that the autonomous transportation market is actively developing and it is important to prepare for scaling. The company said that the partnership with Sinotruk will provide quality control at all stages of the parliament and allow you to release a requested product.
Autonomic Citrak’s first series examples will be certified in Russia and WATS will receive a high automatic vehicle. This will officially allow them to move on public roads. Sinotruk is sure that such projects not only strengthen the positions of companies in the market, but also positively affect the development of the national economy and create new opportunities for logistics.
