In the development and deployment of the autonomous mover, HOLON has worked closely with various partners, including the renowned Italian design company Pininfarina, the mobility provider Beep, and Mobileye, an Intel company. While Mobileye is developing the self-driving system for the autonomous mover, Beep is adding technologies and services for the deployment and operating systems of a mobility service. Pininfarina designed the autonomous mover. With its first-class engineering and global manufacturing expertise, HOLON is responsible for the development and production of the mover within the cooperation. The shuttles are scheduled to go into production in the United States starting in 2025.
Areas of application and thus customers are not only public transport companies, but also municipalities and private institutions such as campuses, airports, national parks, and others. Another field is last-mile delivery – a growing transport sector that has hitherto clashed with the goal of reducing traffic and local emissions in urban areas. To this end, HOLON is also aiming for special autonomous transport variants in the future.
To further increase the growth potential, BENTELER and HOLON are also examining the possibility of working with other strategic partners and investors for the new company. The first pilot applications, also outside of North America, are to be announced in the coming months and will be developed from 2023 onwards.
From 2024, the first movers for HOCHBAHN should visibly travel through Hamburg and go into test operation from 2025. As early as 2030, up to 10,000 autonomous on-demand shuttles from different providers could then be on the road in public transport throughout the entire Hanseatic city.
