HHLA and MAN Truck & Bus complete autonomous truck pilot

Hamburg Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) and MAN Truck & Bus have successfully completed the Hamburg TruckPilot, which saw the development and practical testing of an autonomous truck.

Part of the strategic mobility partnership between the City of Hamburg and Volkswagen AG, the three-year project saw trials conducted at HHLA’s Container Terminal Altenwerder (CTA).

Frederik Zohm, MAN board member for research and development, said: “Pilot projects like Hamburg TruckPilot prove that the use of self-driving trucks is technologically feasible and can be efficiently integrated into the logistics processes.
