This marks the latest development following a project initiated in September 2023 in collaboration with UPS. Auto-Cargo® is a fully autonomous electric vehicle designed to move heavy cargo loads to and from aircraft, built using a combination of highly engineered hardware and Aurrigo's proprietary autonomous software. The cargo solution offers the potential to transform handling operations by carrying a total payload of 16,500kg when towing a standard trailer, as well as being fully electric and emissions-free versus incumbent diesel vehicles currently in use. Backed by funding from Innovate UK andCentre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV), the new AutoCargo® vehicle will now go on trial to move heavy cargo loads to and from aircraft at UPS's hub at East Midlands Airport, the UK's second largest cargo terminal. With precision automation, advanced obstacle detection, and real-time fleet coordination, the vehicle promises to reduce stress on workers, enhance safety, and optimise on-the-ground performance. Commenting on the launch, the Minister for Industry and Decarbonisation, Sarah Jones, said: "Our modern Industrial Strategy will help build on successes like Aurrigo's autonomous technology, bringing growth, jobs and opportunities to every part of the UK and delivering on our Plan for Change. "By working in partnership with industry, we want to drive forward innovation and propel the development of next generation zero emission and automated vehicle technologies." David Keene, CEO of Aurrigo International, commented:"We are delighted to unveil our new Auto-Cargo® vehicle at our HQ in Coventry, alongside our collaboration partners. This was the culmination of over a year's work between Aurrigo and UPS and was a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase our newest product to industry players. "This development builds on the significant success we have seen with the roll-out of our smaller Auto-DollyTug® at airports across the globe, helping to transport passenger luggage. There is huge demand for automation in the air-freight space, demand we are now in a position to serve. We look forward to the next phase of testing at East Midlands Airport and updating shareholders as we continue to drive airside efficiency and safety through automation." The Auto-Cargo® vehicle was unveiled at Aurrigo's HQ in Coventry.
