“Since launching autonomous operations along the Laredo corridor, we’ve realized immediate operational benefits that point to a clear path to scaling,” said Andy Khera, president of Charger Logistics.
That brings Aurora 85 cents or more per mile, on trucks Aurora expects to run about 250,000 miles a year.
Charger’s fleet and routes Charger Logistics, a privately held, asset-based carrier, operates across the U.S. and Mexico.
The 500 Aurora trucks would exceed that count.
Charger plans to run the Aurora trucks on current and new high-volume routes near the border and across the country.
