The prototype of the Russian unmanned mainline truck L5 was presented by Navio in Moscow. Navio is the former SberAutoTech, since 2020 it has been developing autonomous driving technologies and other products with artificial intelligence. The prototype of the L5 truck was initially designed by Navio to be fully autonomous. In terms of autonomy, the truck corresponds to the L5 level, which is full automation. The truck has a machine vision system, which includes several cameras, radars and LiDAR sensors. Instead of a windshield, the L5 unmanned vehicle has a huge screen. It is needed to display various information: duplicating turn signals, indicating the speed of movement, etc. The unmanned truck is capable of saving up to 15% of fuel and reducing the cost of transporting goods by up to 30%. Cargo with the L5 truck will be delivered faster, since the unmanned vehicle does not need to stop for rest and can work around the clock. In September, Navio, together with KamAZ, for the first time released Russian trucks without a person in the driver's seat on the M-11 Neva highway.
