For autonomous trucking to scale, it has to fit into the way freight already moves. Aurora President @ossaf shares how we’re expanding driverless operations across routes and customer endpoints, with a focus on reliability, scalability, and integration into day-to-day logistics networks. That’s how we’re building toward an autonomous backbone for American transportation.

More routes. More miles. More customer value. Our network encompasses 12 distinct routes across the Sun Belt, now including: ✅ Dallas <> Laredo: Driverless operations validated in just 6 weeks. ✅ Dallas <> OKC: Started supervised autonomous deliveries for a key Volvo Autonomous Solutions customer. We are expanding our routes to give our customers the coverage they need to keep goods moving. $AUR

$AUR is hitting a new gear. 🚚💨 In our Q1 Business Review, Co-founder & CEO Chris Urmson breaks down the major milestones driving our path to commercial scale: 🛠️ New Fleet / Gen 2 Hardware: Launching in Q2 2026 on a new fleet of driverless trucks with nobody behind the wheel 🚛 Fleet Expansion: Announced a significant expansion of our strategic partnership with Hirschbach Motor Lines, including a plan for the carrier to own 500 Aurora Driver-powered trucks 🗺️ 12-Route Network: Including new validated driverless routes between Dallas and Laredo and supervised autonomous routes between Dallas and Oklahoma City. 🇺🇸 Coast-to-Coast: California regulatory momentum expands our SAM to a projected 60B vehicle miles by 2028 Watch the full recap below! 👇

One of the largest distributors in America, @McLaneCo, has agreed to begin driverless hauls in Texas with the Aurora Driver. The agreement builds on three years and 280,000 autonomous miles hauling refrigerated freight for some of America’s most recognizable restaurant chains. Proof is now becoming progress.

Autonomous trucks are here. $AUR Chris Urmson and Ed Niedermeyer sat down at #RideAI to discuss the realities of deploying this technology in the real world. Watch the full discussion: youtu.be/HlUrUTq2qXQ

Our expansion into Phoenix continues to show what autonomous technology can unlock: safer operations, stronger freight efficiency, and a faster path to moving goods across long-haul routes that matter.

Check out the Aurora Driver hauling freight for Detmar Logistics. We’re now servicing customer endpoints including: 📍 Detmar: Midland ↔️ Monahans 📍 Hirschbach: Dallas ↔️ Laredo for Driscoll’s🍓 📍 A top carrier: Direct-to-facility in Phoenix For Detmar, this endpoint-to-endpoint service enables over 20 hours of daily operation, effectively doubling their capacity and providing them with a superhuman capability. By navigating right to the facility gate, we’re meeting our customers exactly where they need us. 🛣️

.@theavindustry was honored to host @RepVinceFong and Aurora CEO @chris_urmson for an incredible discussion at our AUTONOMY SUMMIT 25. Thanks to both of them!

We’ve partnered with Detmar Logistics, a Permian Basin-based logistics carrier, to autonomously haul frac sand on public highways for a major energy producer — an industry first. With 24/7 operations between customer sites next year, the Aurora Driver will double asset utilization for Detmar, highlighting the impact autonomy brings to high-demand logistics.

Thank you, @RepVinceFong, for the discussion on how autonomous trucking will strengthen America’s supply chain. We appreciate your continued leadership on policies like the AMERICA DRIVES Act that help unlock the safety and efficiency benefits of this technology.

Aurora continues to set the bar for safety in autonomous trucking. Hear Chief Safety Officer Nat Beuse discuss our approach and why policy, standards, and best practices matter in this session hosted by @NVIDIADRIVE. Full panel below:

Watch the Aurora Driver successfully navigate a complex scenario: it spots and avoids debris while executing a lane change to protect roadside pedestrians on I-45 in Texas. Advanced detection systems are crucial for highway safety.

Thank you #ATS25 for creating such a dynamic and engaging environment in Phoenix for the Automated Transportation Symposium. It was an honor to keynote today’s plenary session. @aurora_inno @SAEIntl

Aurora is proud to be setting the pace to show how steady, responsible innovation can turn what once seemed impossible into the everyday. Appreciate the thoughtful coverage for this week's Wall Street Week on @BloombergTV!

The quiet, less talked about race for autonomous, self-driving trucking. We worked on this for this week’s Wall Street Week on @BloombergTV youtu.be/U4E_h22C34M

Self-driving trucks promise to transform freight across the US and Europe, but the road to automation is not bump-free. @EdLudlow reports on Friday's "Wall Street Week." Tune in at 6 p.m. ET bloom.bg/4qdDDHL

The latest development from the @USDOT allows @aurora_inno’s autonomous trucks to use cab-mounted warning beacons as an alternative to reflective triangles. Together, we are working to enhance the safety of our roads and bring innovation to US transport. aurora.tech/newsroom/an-upda…

Big news — we’re partnering with @McLeodSoftware to develop the industry’s first Transportation Management System with access to self-driving trucks! Integration with the Aurora Driver app = a frictionless experience for customers. Beta testing is already rolling. Don’t miss the details: bit.ly/4mEqvt2

Driverless ✅, Nighttime ✅, Rain & Heavy Wind ◌. The #AuroraDriver is growing up! With nighttime driving we’ve unlocked more than 2x the truck utilization potential. Next up, rain and heavy wind. Read more from our Q2 Business Review here: bit.ly/4l3bvDa $AUR

✅ Done!
