研究表明，无人驾驶技术可能显著提前电动长途卡车的商业可行性。对澳大利亚最繁忙货运走廊悉尼-墨尔本进行的建模显示，采用无人驾驶使电动卡车的成本优势相当于电池价格下降34澳元/千瓦时1。鉴于2025年电池价格约为162澳元/千瓦时，这一降幅代表了显著的经济改善1。
若无人卡车的日均运行时间从25%提升至50%，其效果相当于电池成本进一步下降75澳元/千瓦时，这可能将电动化采用时间表加速数年1。研究同时指出，无人驾驶电动卡车的最优运行速度约为80公里/小时，低于有驾驶员时的100公里/小时1。距离在600至1,000公里的中等长度州际走廊最适合部署无人电动卡车，包括悉尼-墨尔本（877公里）、布里斯班-悉尼（915公里）和阿德莱德-墨尔本（约726公里）走廊1。
澳大利亚已在皮尔巴拉地区运营规模化无人驾驶卡车，运输部长同意自2027年起允许在选定公路上有条件地部署此类车辆1。
Research indicates that driverless electric heavy trucks may achieve economic competitiveness with traditional diesel vehicles much earlier than previously anticipated.1 A modeling study of Australia's busiest freight corridor, Sydney to Melbourne, demonstrates that autonomous operation provides an economic advantage equivalent to an AUD $34 per kilowatt-hour reduction in battery costs, relative to current battery prices of approximately AUD $162/kWh as of 2025.1 The optimal speed for autonomous electric trucks operates at approximately 80 kilometers per hour, lower than the 100 kilometers per hour typical of driver-operated vehicles.1
Increasing daily utilization rates for autonomous trucks from 25 percent to 50 percent would further amplify this advantage, creating an economic benefit equivalent to an additional AUD $75 per kilowatt-hour decline in battery costs.1 This improvement in utilization could potentially accelerate the adoption of electric long-haul vehicles by several years.1 Australia's transport minister has approved conditional deployment of autonomous trucks on selected highways beginning in 2027, following successful large-scale operations already underway in the Pilbara region.1 The most suitable applications for autonomous electric trucks are mid-distance interstate corridors spanning 600 to 1,000 kilometers, including Sydney-Melbourne at 877 kilometers, Brisbane-Sydney at 915 kilometers, and Adelaide-Melbourne at approximately 726 kilometers.1
