Self-driving truck technology company TuSimple Holdings Inc. and truck maker Navistar, the parent of the International brand, announced an end to their co-development of autonomous trucks under their initial 2020 joint development agreement.
Navistar and TuSimple did not provide a specific reason for the halt, but said the decision does not preclude the companies from working together in the future.
Prior to the JDA, the companies had a technical relationship for two years, said Navistar, which then took an undisclosed minority stake in TuSimple. Production was said to be targeted for 2024.
