Asda has launched a home delivery trial using self-driving vehicles

Asda has launched a new home delivery trial using self-driving vehicles to deliver shopping to customers’ homes. In partnership with Wayve - a vehicle technology start-up - Asda’s year-long trial will give the supermarket the ability to autonomously deliver groceries without needing a driver.

During the 12-month trial an Asda colleague and supervising Wayve safety driver will be in the vehicle when making deliveries. Asda colleagues will load and unload the groceries at the customer’s home, but they will be transported from the store to the door in a self-driving vehicle.
