Adopting advanced driver assistance technologies (ADAS) has significantly improved highway safety, according to a study conducted by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration in collaboration with trucking industry leaders. An example includes J.B. Hunt, a leading for-hire carrier in the US, which has equipped 98% of its vehicles with a forward-collision warning system and lane departure warning along with dash cameras on 84% of its class 8 trucks. Implementing such technologies has enabled a 50% reduction in rear-end crashes and increased asset uptime and driver retention. Furthermore, owing to the trucks' safety benefits and increased demand from drivers, J.B. Hunt plans to deploy a blind spot detection system on its fleets that can help to avert sideswipes and lane change accidents. Hence, these factors are fueling the autonomous trucks market's CAGR growth.
Additionally, Reduced emissions and greater fuel efficiency of automated trucks augment growth; around 25% of the environmental pollution caused by the transportation sector in the US is attributed to trucking, and fuel consumption accounts for nearly 25 to 40 percent of the total long-haul trucking costs in Europe and North America. Autonomous types of trucks via features such as low RPM runs, greater speed governance, automated manual transmissions, and aerodynamic platooning can improve long-haul fuel economy and directly lead to improved driving performance and emission reductions. Hence, fuel savings and pollution control improvement are major factors driving the Autonomous Trucks market revenue.
The Autonomous Trucks Market segmentation, based on components, includes hardware and software. The software segment dominated the market; this is because of the controls of the acceleration, brakes, and steering for the automated vehicle through system software. Furthermore, the vehicle actively monitors the environment using the software.

October 2020 Daimler partnered with Waymo to build fully driverless semi-trucks. This strategic partnership provides Daimler with autonomous driving technology from Waymo to integrate into the company's trucks.
Based on sensor type, the Autonomous Trucks Market segmentation includes LiDAR, image, radar, and ultrasonic. The ultrasonic sensor segment held the largest share of the market in 2022. These sensors are significantly less expensive than others and are extensively used for ADAS applications such as parking assistance, owing to their accuracy in short-range object detection. These factors are responsible for this segment's high market share. The LiDAR sensor segment is anticipated to exhibit a higher CAGR. They provide superior range & speed detection of objects using reflected light instead of relying on brake lights. Their operation under low visibility conditions is also better compared to camera-based systems. These factors have encouraged trucking companies to adopt this Technology.
Based on Technology, the Autonomous Trucks Market segmentation includes semi-automated and fully automated trucks. The semi-automated trucks segment held the largest share of the market. This is due to the progress toward vehicle automation, especially mining and delivery trucks, and increasing safety regulations by various countries.
