Don’t forget Richard Branson, either, as he thinks about routes in Asia, Europe and North America.

Geely says a European R&D office alone can’t easily replicate its 13-year engineering setup

Geely says a European R&D office alone can’t easily replicate its 13-year engineering setup

Geely says its 13-year China-Europe engineering system, built with Volvo through CMA, is hard to replicate just by opening a European R&D office. Engineer Kennet Pettersson says he has worked on more than twice as many platforms in 13 years at Geely as in 15 years at Saab and Volvo. Chery says it plans a UK R&D center this year.

  • 01A useful benchmark for cross-border engineering: one Geely chief engineer completed three platforms in 15 years at Saab and Volvo, then more than double that in 13 years inside the Geely-Volvo system.
  • 02The two engineering cultures pull in opposite directions, European teams designing for needs five to 10 years out and Chinese teams building for now and changing fast, and Geely's stated answer is a negotiated middle, not a winner.
  • 03Chinese companies have invested in more than 130 European parts makers since the mid-2000s, per Rhodium via the Financial Times, so the question for a European supplier is no longer whether Chinese OEMs arrive but where their engineering decisions get made.

Dot Transportation is testing software that predicts driver fatigue before a shift starts

Dot Transportation is testing software that predicts driver fatigue before a shift starts

Dot Transportation is piloting Fatigue Science's Readi platform, which gives drivers hour-by-hour fatigue predictions before a shift, FleetOwner reported Sept. 16, 2026. The trial moves fatigue management from in-cab alerts to pre-dispatch planning. It lands as ATRI opens benefit-cost research on hours-of-service and ELD rules.

  • 01A fatigue forecast delivered before dispatch is a planning input; an in-cab drowsiness alert arrives after the risk is already on the road. That timing difference is the feature to evaluate in any predictive fatigue pilot.
  • 02Research in Production and Operations Management found ELD mandates closed an hours-of-service compliance gap between drivers, a reminder that logged hours and actual alertness are different measurements.
  • 03Two signals to watch: whether Dot Transportation publishes pilot results, and whether ATRI's new benefit-cost research on HOS and ELD rules changes how fleets justify fatigue tools beyond compliance.

International and PlusAI are building Level 4 trucks around NVIDIA's Thor chip

International and PlusAI are building Level 4 trucks around NVIDIA's Thor chip

International Motors and PlusAI are building factory-installed Level 4 trucks on NVIDIA's DRIVE AGX Hyperion platform and Thor chip, Fleet Owner reported. Nauto CEO Stefan Heck told Heavy Duty Trucking the harder job is proving safety across hundreds of billions of real miles. Early runs will stick to corridors like Interstate 10.

  • 01Even at Stefan Heck's top projection of 200,000 self-driving vehicles within two years, autonomous systems will still represent only a small fraction of the market for years compared to the roughly 12 million trucks operating in the US, according to Heavy Duty Trucking.
  • 02The sharper question to put to any Level 4 vendor is which corridors it can document as validated with real miles, since Heck argues simulation only covers scenarios engineers have already imagined.
  • 03Grote's 4SEE Digital Harness brings lamp-specific fault reporting and over-the-air updates to the trailer, a spec item fleets can write now regardless of when the tractor drives itself.
