Hutchison Port Holdings Trust (HPH Trust) has unveiled a fleet of zero-emission autonomous trucks in Hong Kong.

The AI-powered innovation is designed for efficient container transportation at all terminals, and supports the city’s objectives of smarter and greener port terminal operations.

The launch ceremony was officiated by Liu Chun San, undersecretary for transport and logistics in the HKSAR government and Ivor Chow, CEO of HPH Trust and managing director of Hongkong International Terminals (HIT).

The autonomous truck (AT) fleet vehicles, designed without a driver’s cab, can operate alongside conventional vehicles in a mixed-traffic mode called ‘true’.

Food delivery company DoorDash has partnered with Also, an electric micromobility specialist, on autonomous last-mile delivery.

The strategic investment and multi-year collaboration will see the two companies work to deploy small, purpose-built EVs designed to optimize how goods move in population-dense environments.

The partnership is focused on unlocking one of the most challenging parts of last-mile delivery: the intersection of roads and road-adjacent spaces such as bike-lanes, shoulders and curbsides.

These are areas where traditional vehicles can face difficulty, and Also’s smaller, adaptable vehicles are designed to be able to navigate them.

“Small autonomous EVs are optimal in these environments,” said Also co-founder and president Chris Yu.

Aurrigo International has been granted a license to provide ground handling services at East Midlands Airport to support the deployment of its autonomous aviation technologies.

The UK-based company said the license will enable it to work directly with airport teams and partners during the rollout and implementation of its autonomous ground service equipment (GSE).

The approval allows Aurrigo to operate within the airport’s ground handling framework while providing on-site support during the introduction of its autonomous systems.

David Keene, CEO of Aurrigo International, said, “Securing this license is another important step in our partnership with East Midlands Airport.

San Francisco International Airport (SFO) has approved Waymo to begin delivering a fully autonomous taxi service for passenger trips to and from the airport from January 29, marking the final phase of a pilot program that began in September 2025.

The approval allows autonomous vehicles begin carrying select passengers, following testing designed to ensure the safety of autonomous operations on SFO roadways. Passenger pickups and drop-offs will take place at the Rental Car Center Level 1 curbside, which is accessible via the AirTrain people mover.

SFO said the move expands ground transportation options for travelers while supporting innovation in the region.

Changi Airport has begun live airside operations of fully driverless autonomous tractors, following nearly a year of trials involving more than 5,000 test trips.

Two autonomous tractors are now operating between the baggage handling areas at Terminal 1 and Terminal 4, transporting passenger bags without onboard drivers. The vehicles are equipped with more than 10 sensors and cameras, enabling them to navigate the airside environment in all weather conditions, including at night and in the rain. Operations are remotely supervised from a control center, where operators can intervene immediately if required.

The launch was officiated on January 20 by Sun Xueling, Singapore’s senior minister of state for transport, and represents a step forward in Changi Airport’s wider push toward airside automation and productivity gains.

The Integrated Transport Centre (Abu Dhabi Mobility) has launched Abu Dhabi’s first pilot program for autonomous delivery vehicles, in collaboration with K2 and EMX, the logistics arm of 7X.

Under the supervision of the Smart and Autonomous Systems Council (SASC) and in partnership with Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO), it marks the first issuance of an official license plate for a self-driving delivery vehicle in the UAE.

The auto-delivery vehicles, developed by K2 subsidiary AutoGo, are powered by advanced smart mobility and AI technologies. According to Abu Dhabi Mobility, they are of capable of navigating urban streets and delivering orders efficiently without human intervention.
