Global Autonomous Truck Market Forecast 2035:

According to the report, the global autonomous truck market is likely to grow from USD 0.5 Billion in 2025 to USD 2.3 Billion in 2035 at a highest CAGR of 17.1% during the time period. Expanding e-commerce and logistics demand, escalating labor shortage, and the necessity to have cost-effective long-haul freight solutions are the key drivers of the development of the global autonomous truck market. The development of AI and machine learning, LiDAR, radar and V2X communication systems is providing the opportunity to be more automated and provide greater levels of safety, navigation and predictive maintenance. In North America and Europe, regulatory support and pilot programs are gaining momentum and are simplifying adoption, offering precise guidelines on testing and implementation.

Moreover, the adoption of electric powered engines and autonomous platforms are drawing the interests of fleet operators who are interested in cutting fuel expenses and carbon emissions. Alliances between OEMs, technology solutions, and logistics firms, including Aurora Innovation and PACCAR and FedEx in 2025, have shown viable business models, which increase market confidence. Moreover, the spirit of smart, connected and sustainable freight solutions is generating tremendous market development opportunities in both regional and international logistic systems.

All this helps increase adoption and operational efficiency as well as addressable autonomous truck market worldwide.

"Key Driver, Restraint, and Growth Opportunity Shaping the Global Autonomous Truck Market"

One of the major autonomous truck market drivers is the increasing platooning technology of autonomous trucks. Platooning can be used to provide several trucks and drive in convoys with automated driving technologies to use less fuel, enhance traffic motion, and reduce the cost of operations. In 2025, Daimler Truck AG was able to test Level 4 autonomous platoons over the European roads and demonstrated efficiency improvements.

A major limitation to autonomous trucks is the risk of cybersecurity. Trucks become hackable and prone to data breaches and manipulation of the system due to the integration of AI, cloud connection, and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. Having a strong cybersecurity system will raise the expenses of research and development, as well as delay a commercial implementation.

The growing need to have autonomous last-mile delivery solutions is an important opportunity. Firms such as Aurora Innovation and Waymo Via are considering autonomous light-duty trucks in urban deliveries, which will decrease the dependence on labor and operational expenses. The increase in these services in e-commerce logistics can make a great adoption of the autonomous truck market.

"Impact of Global Tariff Policies on the Autonomous Truck Market Growth and Strategy"

The tariff rates have a major influence in the global autonomous truck market such as in the importation of components and also in the sale of vehicles across borders. LiDAR sensors, radar modules, AI chips, and electric powertrain components are very vital components whose high tariffs may raise production costs, which reduces adoption and deployment in price-sensitive markets. As an example, in 2024, the U.S. tariffs on specific imported components of semiconductors in Asia temporarily increased the prices of autonomous truck makers, such as PACCAR and Aurora Innovation, resulting in the postponement of production and an increase in fleet purchase costs by logistics firms.

Moreover, tariffs have influence on strategic alliances and supply chain strategies because manufacturers have to consider regional sourcing and importation. Companies are also localizing production or entering into joint ventures in order to reduce exposure to tariffs. In 2025, Daimler Truck AG declared partial regional productions of autonomous truck elements in North America in order to elude the excessive import charges and keep the price at a competitive level.

Changes in tariffs may be reflected in the pricing of the autonomous truck market, supply chain strategy, and speed of deployment in the region, a factor that may impede the adoption of autonomous trucks worldwide.

Expansion of Global Autonomous Truck Market

"Key Factors Driving Expansion of Global Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Technology Market"

The growth of the global autonomous truck market is vehemently motivated by the increase in the demand of the long-haul freight efficiency. As the trucking industry in North America struggles with the shortage of more than 80,000 drivers by 2024, the logistics companies are enhanced to invest in autonomous trucks to ensure deliveries remain on time. Companies including Aurora Innovation, together with FedEx and PACCAR are testing autonomous freight routes in Texas and Arizona, and they have found that it lowers costs of operations by up to 20 percent, and saves fuel.

The use of technology as well is also crucial in the growth of the autonomous truck market. The development of AI-based navigation, LiDAR cameras, V2X, and predictive maintenance technologies can help trucks to be safe in a complicated situation. Daimler Truck AG collaborated with Torc Robotics in 2025 to deploy autonomous-ready trucks with redundant safety systems, to accelerate commercial-scale adoption in North America.

Moreover, growth is being supported by the regulatory support and strategic partnerships. Europe and the U.S. governments are offering testing and commercialization guidelines and alliances between OEMs and technology companies with logistics companies are accelerating market penetration. As an example, the 2025 agreement between Volvo Autonomous Solutions and Waabi combines the virtual driver system with VNL autonomous trucks to be used by commercial pilots in Texas.

The autonomous truck market can be adopted and grow sustainably due to the joint efforts of technology, regulatory backing, and efficient operations.

Regional Analysis of Global Autonomous Truck Market

The North America autonomous truck market has the greatest demand of autonomous trucks, as its logistics and long-haul freight systems are well developed, and major shortages of drivers exist. In 2024, the trucking industry in the U.S. was experiencing a shortage of over 80,000 drivers, and fleets operators had to resort to autonomous trucks as a way to ensure efficiency in the industry. Also, advanced technological infrastructure, favorable regulations on autonomous testing, and a solid R&D by firms such as Aurora Innovation and PACCAR makes it easier to roll out. Level 4 autonomous truck testing and commercial operations also fit well on North American highways, which facilitates the adoption.

The region of Asia and the Pacific is expected to experience the most rapid increase in the rate of the autonomous truck market due to the rapid industrialization of the region, the development of e-commerce logistics, and the investments of the governments in the intelligent transport systems and smart highways. China, Japan, and South Korea are actively investing in self-driving mobility initiatives, and companies such as Volvo Autonomous Solutions and Baidu Apollo are carrying out pilot initiatives in the field of freight and last-mile delivery. Increasing urbanisation, population density, and freight volumes put a great pressure on the need to have automated, cost efficient and scalable transportation solutions.

North America is the most current demand because of the advanced infrastructure and technology whereas Asia Pacific has the greatest growth potential owing to increased industrial growth and smart transport programs.

Prominent players operating in the global autonomous truck market are AB Volvo, Aptiv, Autonomous Solutions Inc., Caterpillar Inc., Continental AG, Daimler AG, Denso Corporation, Embark Trucks, Inc., Hitachi Ltd., Intel Corporation, Komatsu Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation, PACCAR, Inc., Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., Robert Bosch GmbH, Tesla Inc., Valeo SA, Waymo LLC, ZF Friedrichshafen AG, and Other Key Players.
