Daimler’s Autonomous Electric Freightliner eCascadia Hints At The Future

Daimler Truck has unveiled a Freightliner eCascadia with a Level 4 autonomous driving system. It previews a future where goods could be shipped without drivers or emissions. A production Level 4 semi is due in the coming years. America is experiencing a truck driver shortage, but help is on the way as Daimler Truck aims to offer an autonomous semi by 2027. That would be a game changing development as the Level 4 vehicle wouldn’t need a human driver when operating under certain conditions.

While the company didn’t say which powertrain the prototype has, it features a sensor bar with cameras as well as lidar and radar sensors. The bar is mounted high-up on the vehicle and this helps to improve aerodynamic performance, protect the sensors, and help prevent “soiling.” https://youtu.be/Ykvgn6WPwj0 Additional sensors are mounted further below and Daimler said the demonstrator has four extra 12-volt batteries to “ensure uninterrupted operation as well as increased safety.
