Aurora launches its driverless commercial trucking service, and a surprise bidder joins Canoo's bankruptcy case | TechCrunch
Briefly

Aurora Innovation has achieved a significant milestone by launching the U.S.'s first fully autonomous commercial trucking service after delays. Within just a week, Aurora successfully transported freight over 1,200 miles between Dallas and Houston using one truck with launch partners Hirschbach Motor Lines and Uber Freight. The company plans to expand its operations significantly, with ambitions of operating tens of self-driving trucks and extending service to El Paso and Phoenix by the end of 2025. However, uncertainties in the freight shipping landscape may challenge Aurora's position as it moves forward.
