Einride has partnered with American food producer Mars Inc, to provide a fleet of digitally optimised electric heavy-duty trucks across Mars’ European network by 2030.

The iQ-Cruise will be integrated with Eaton’s portfolio of automated manual transmissions, including the Eaton Cummins range.

The valve cap sensor is screwed directly onto the valve of a bus, truck or trailer tyre and measures the tyre pressure in real time. The data is accessed through the ContiConnect tyre app. This entry-level valve cap solution allows fleet managers quicker and easier tyre management, saving time and boosting profitability.

Developed with Amazon Web Services (AWS), the software platform offers logistics companies access to digital services including CV fleet optimisation, goods monitoring and order processing designed to simplify fleet/logistics operations and improve the efficiency and sustainability of vehicle fleets.

It is an ‘E-Tech D Wide 26-tonne’ truck with a special body built by Frappa; the body contains a carousel system which was designed by French engineering services firm Actemium.

Using a camera and visual analysis powered by artificial intelligence, Nauto’s technology can detect drowsiness or inattention in drivers and alert them.

This investment is aimed at enhancing its operational efficiency, preparing the facility to accommodate new components such as those for electric vehicles, and increasing physical capacity of the operation by some 50%.

The aim of the consortium's project is to automate a 40-foot bus for automated depot operations, which is expected to revolutionize how buses are stored, operated, and charged.
