Europe’s First Autonomous Logistics Vehicle
The founders of tech startup LOXO officially presented LOXO Alpha at the Kursaal in Bern on December 6. The electric delivery vehicle is slated to debut on public roads in a few short months. It will represent the first commercial application of an autonomous vehicle making last-mile deliveries in Switzerland.
The launch especially appealed to companies seeking to solve enduring problems in the «last-mile delivery» sector. Their low margins, high delivery costs and driver shortages are exactly the shortcomings that LOXO solves.
The Bern kickoff event attracted e-commerce retailers, logisticians, excited futurists and interested members of the public sector in an upbeat celebration of green-thinking and future-proof innovation.
“LOXO’s launch event demonstrates that autonomous delivery is now becoming a reality,” said company CEO Amin Amini. “We are proud to have taken this step in the most innovative country, Switzerland.”
The start of a revolution
The LOXO transport solution aspires for nothing less than to revolutionize autonomous mobility and e-commerce. It aims to become the standard for delivering online-ordered merchandise to consumers, efficiently, reliably and with no CO2 emissions.
If the Bern launch is any indication, the company is off to a very good start.
