Chinese autonomous driving company Momenta has launched its Robovan autonomous freight business, with vehicles already operating in Suzhou’s Xiangcheng district. The company said the vehicles are being deployed for express delivery and overnight delivery, using its R7 world model and a map-free approach adapted from passenger-car deployments.
Momenta said the same model platform will support passenger cars, Robovan, Robotruck, and Robotaxi applications, with potential expansion into embodied AI. More than 1 million production vehicles currently use Momenta systems, while the company has delivered systems for more than 100 vehicle models and secured design wins for over 210 models.
