As of today, Loblaw told CTV News Toronto in an email it has five trucks on the road.
The two companies have been testing the technology since Jan. 2020 and completed 150,000 autonomous deliveries with a 100 per cent safety record during that time.
One of those vehicles is operating fully autonomously, while the other four have a safety driver on board.The refrigerated trucks operate for about 12 hours a day and pick up grocery orders from a Loblaw distribution facility before arriving at nearby retail locations in the GTA on fixed, repetitive, predictable routes.
