Oxbotica and AppliedEV working on autonomous EV
Oxbotica and AppliedEV are developing a fully autonomous, multi-purpose electric vehicle for use in a range of environments for commercial applications including industrial logistics and goods delivery.
The project will see Oxbotica integrate its autonomous vehicle software with AppliedEV's Blanc Robot, a programmable and configurable EV platform.
The commercial strategy for Oxbotica and AppliedEV is to focus on markets such as industrial logistics and goods delivery that have immediate economic business cases, and a mature regulatory environment to enable deployment at scale. Continued growth is expected in further industries as the number of vehicles is scaled.
