Two of Einride’s cab-less, driverless electric trucks are now running scheduled routes on EASE property and local public roads, carrying freight between EASE facilities. The vehicles operate without anyone in the cab; a remote operator monitors each truck off-site and can step in if needed. Starting last month, the deployment has been gen
