The next steps for autonomous trucks
What’s next for autonomous trucks, and where do we stand?
For answers to these questions, I talked to Andrew Culhane, chief commercial officer at Torc Robotics, at the recent ACT Expo. See why he says 2027 is the date they’ve circled for bringing autonomous trucks to market, and why the hard work comes in the next three years leading up to that.

The biggest challenge that any lower- or zero-emission powertrain technology faces is that diesel is just too good at its job. It's hyper efficient in its own right in terms of how much energy is pulled out of the fuel in a diesel engine. It creates massive amounts of power world moving power. And it's widely available. Those are tall hurdles to clear, but new powertrain technologies are gettin...
Steer axle application considerations

“Location, location, location” is a well-known real estate industry mantra; in the fleet world, we can change that to “application, application, application.” Doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, but you get what I mean. There’s no part or component on the truck that isn’t affected by where and how the truck will be used, and this should be the first thing on any fleet manager’s mind when sp...

    The gov has mandated emissions free powerplants for vehicles. If is burns a fuel, it emits emissions. Usually it takes 10 years to test & fine tune a new engine. It is making my head spin at how fast & how many new ICE powerplants are coming to market. What is behind it is THOUSANDS of powertrain engineers in a last grasp attempt to keep their skills relevant. They need to enroll in EV school. Too little, Too late. !

    A retread should never under any circumstance be used on a steer axle. That’s just asking for a blowout to happen. If you are trying to save money on a retread over new, then you are not running profitably and should not be running trucks. The failure rate of retreads over new proves this on non steered axles. The damage done by a blow out on a steer tire to the fender, lights, bumper and rim far outweighs the saving, plus you have to buy another tire. On a 4x2 straight truck the steering angles are dictated by the wheelbase, not necessarily the weight as this continually changes whilst making deliveries and pick ups. The correct wheelbase is also tied to the length of the body and the type of work it is specced for.

    Electric vehicles aren't zero emission until we have zero emission sources powering those vehicles, their manufacturing, including the manufacturing of their batteries. Even then, we are going to have an immense amount of waste in the form of ICE vehicles to further offset in the environmental game for moving everyone to electric. We need a breakthrough in power generation more than anything. After that occurs, and we have true, next-gen batteries (500+Wh/kg) that do less damaged the environment (production and recycling); then we should be worrying about getting everybody into electric vehicles. Is our grid even prepared for mass home charging? Sure, everyone charging level 1 wouldn't be an issue, but as batteries improve we can be sure nobody will be trying to charge at level 1, meaning everybody will be drawing substantially more electricity than they ever have, with huge peak overlaps, and with those peaks extending overnight. For the record, I'm no ICE fan (for the last 5 years we've owned one Honda family van for my family of five). I'm just concerned about environmental damage and waste beyond the absurd amount we're already guilty of. The fact that so many electric vehicles are practically supercars makes me think our priorities are way off. /rant
