Oxa, a leader in autonomous vehicle technology, has launched autonomous versions of the Ford E-Transit van and minibus, now operating on UK and US roads. Powered by Oxa Driver software, these vehicles mark a milestone in the commercial deployment of self-driving technology.
The Ford E-Transit, Europe’s best-selling large electric van, has been adapted using Oxa’s Reference Autonomy Designs (RADs), allowing for rapid integration of autonomy systems. Configurable for logistics or passenger services (up to 10 seats), the autonomous E-Transit offers a versatile, scalable platform for fleets, maintaining interior space and manual controls.
Equipped with advanced sensors, including lidar, radar, and cameras, the vehicles can operate autonomously at speeds of up to 35mph in mixed traffic. Oxa’s testing process uses a combination of real-world, controlled, and virtual environments, ensuring safe deployment.
