Russian Company Rolls Out First Fleet of AI-Driven Electric Trucks

Autonomous electric trucks have begun operating in an industrial zone outside Moscow, cutting logistics costs and boosting delivery accuracy.

Driverless freight trucks are no longer just a concept in Russia—they’re now on the road. Recently, a domestic manufacturer deployed the first batch of fully autonomous electric trucks in a Moscow region industrial park. Equipped with an array of sensors and an AI-powered navigation system, these vehicles operate without a human driver.

Each truck can carry up to two tons of cargo and travel as far as 200 kilometers on a single charge. They run around the clock, stopping only for battery recharging and maintenance.

Early performance data shows promising results: logistics costs have dropped by 23 percent, while delivery accuracy has reached 99.8 percent. The trucks also operate with minimal downtime. Industry experts say the success of this pilot program could pave the way for similar deployments at other facilities across Russia.
