DE Group Press DB MOBILE Investors Career digitalization sustainability businesses [3] DB is a pioneer in autonomous driving First autonomous bus line in Germany, platooning tests successfully completed and highly automated S-Bahn operation In Bad Birnbach, DB operates Germany's first autonomous bus line. At the same time, on-demand concepts are being tested in various federal states - for public transport without fixed travel times. Both in combination open up new possibilities for a flexible, climate-friendly, public mobility offer in the city and in the country. The advancement of technology in autonomous driving continues in logistics: DB Schenker was the world's first logistics provider to test, together with MAN and the Fresenius University, the practical use of networked trucks that drive in the slipstream and thus drive more efficiently and more fuel-efficiently. In 2018 platooning test drives took place on the 145-kilometer route between Munich and Nuremberg. In Jönköping, Sweden, DB Schenker and the startup Einride launched the first commercial use of an Einride Pod - a fully electric, autonomous truck - in May 2019. This vehicle travels the route between two DB Schenker locations in Jönköping, sometimes on a public road. The Einride Pod is a self-driving electric vehicle without a driver's cab that can also be remotely controlled if necessary. [5] There are also initial projects on the railways. DB is working with Siemens on digitized operation for the Hamburg S-Bahn. The "Digital S-Bahn Hamburg" is the first project to be implemented at Deutsche Bahn as part of the corporate program "Digital Rail Germany".
