TuSimple’s self-driving trucks up for auction following US exit


Ten of TuSimple's self-driving trucks will be auctioned off, just a few weeks after announcing it planned to exit the U.S. market.

Ten of TuSimple’s autonomous big rigs are set to be auctioned off later this month, just a few weeks after the self-driving trucking startup that went public in 2021 announced it was exiting the U.S. market. TuSimple, which had an office in San Diego and an operations facility in Tucson, Arizona, reported in November that it had 35 autonomous trucks in the United States. It ultimately wound up under investigation by both the FBI and the Securities and Exchange Commission, and subsequently lost a crucial deal to co-develop self-driving big rigs with trucking giant Navistar in late 2022.
