SAN ANTONIO<\/strong> \u2013 The future of self-driving trucks is taking shape in San Antonio.<\/p>\n

International Motors, an Illinois-based commercial truck and bus manufacturer, is piloting autonomous freight technology<\/a> in partnership with PlusAI, managing the trials from International\u2019s hub in San Antonio, according to a press release.<\/p>\n

International will test its autonomous on-highway tractor along the Interstate-35 corridor between Laredo and Dallas with select fleet operators.<\/p>\n

PlusAI, headquartered in California, builds AI-based virtual driving software for autonomous trucks. The company is known to partner with major truck manufacturers<\/a> and announced in June its plans to go public through a merger with Churchill Capital Corp IX, a press release said.<\/p>\n

Together, the companies plan to launch customer fleet trials that use second-generation autonomous vehicles. The second-generation autonomous tractor includes upgraded sensors, computers and PlusAI\u2019s latest self-driving software built directly into International\u2019s LT Series model.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis pilot program is a big step toward seamless digital operations that are designed to deliver an exceptional customer experience,\u201d Tobias Glitterstam, International\u2019s chief strategy and transformation officer, said in the release. \u201cBy working hand-in-hand with our customers, we are proving the commercial viability of autonomous technologies and providing innovative solutions that improve safety, efficiency, and the bottom line.\u201d<\/p>\n

International and PlusAI are also working together to bring scalable, factory-installed autonomous solutions to the transportation industry,<\/a> the press release said.<\/p>\n
