The driverless electric trucks will further improve safety and service levels at HPT’s Terminal D at Laem Chabang Port and will align with HPT’s advanced technology roadmap. HPT’s Terminal D is one of the most advanced container terminals in the world and is the first container terminal globally to successfully implement mixed traffic mode terminal operations. Since 2020, the existing fleet of six autonomous trucks have already moved 120,000 containers within Terminal D.
