As reported in a press release on Feb. 6, WeRide has introduced the Robovan W5, an unmanned delivery solution equipped with Level 4 autonomous driving technology. Designed to enhance the logistics sector, particularly in express delivery and urban distribution, the Robovan W5 aims to offer an intelligent solution by integrating vehicle technology, cloud computing and operational strategies for long-distance and bulk delivery needs.
The Robovan W5's advanced sensor technology offers complete 360-degree perception without blind spots, facilitating safe, reliable and fully unmanned delivery across various scenarios. The vehicle's design prioritizes high cargo capacity, boasting 5.5 cubic meters of space and a 1,000 kg payload capability, addressing the challenges of urban logistics with an operational range of up to 220 km.
Efficiency and versatility are core aspects of the Robovan W5's design. It incorporates an intelligent path optimization system that dynamically adjusts routes based on real-time traffic conditions. Its modular design accommodates different cargo requirements, and the introduction of electric drive and the possibility for multivehicle platooning further increase operational efficiency while lowering costs. Moreover, safety is a key focus with multiple protection mechanisms in place, including redundant systems and emergency response technologies, to ensure reliability across all delivery scenarios.
WeRide also emphasized comprehensive service support for the Robovan W5, including cloud-based scheduling, real-time monitoring, quick deployment, remote updates, and 24/7 customer assistance.
