About us

Mars Auto is building autonomous trucks to fully automate long-haul truck operations. We are bringing self-driving technology to the commercial trucking industry. Autonomous technology will be applied to the trucking industry before anywhere else. Mars Auto is in a unique position to be one of the first companies to deploy driverless trucks on the road. Our data-driven approach allows us to learn driving policy from actual driving data, and our system can be deployed at a fraction of the cost of other solutions. We are paving the road towards driverless trucks, and have many industry-first records. We have started the first autonomous freight shipping in Korea. With the largest amount of autonomous miles in Korea under our belt, we're rapidly expanding our fleet to cover the entire country.

    "... In the trucking industry, where profit margins are tight, cost efficiency is critical. Mars Auto is entering this competitive market alongside several self-driving truck startups expanding across Texas. These companies rely on high-definition maps and complex sensor systems for their self-driving technologies. This traditional approach results in system costs that exceed the price of the truck itself, pushing per-mile trucking costs above those of human drivers. These limitations not only create fundamental constraints in obtaining data to train self-driving AI but also present significant cost barriers to commercialization. In contrast, Mars Auto is embracing a new generation of technology. It employs a mapless, vision-based, end-to-end approach that, similar to Tesla, maximizes the potential of AI on an affordable system. ...." Check out Mars Auto's practical approach in our press release on Business Insider. We're hiring exceptional autonomous driving and machine learning engineers. Feel free to contact us!

    The legislation for paid autonomous trucking, ignited by Mars Auto, passed Congress in January this year and will be enacted tomorrow. Today, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport along with the Korea Expressway Corporation introduced new frameworks to support for self-driving trucks. In March 2023, we became the one and only company in Korea to be granted a special exemption for paid autonomous trucking. Since then, we have expanded our Class 8 long-haul trucking operations based on this exemption. With over 1,200,000 km of proven operational results, we have supported the establishment of the frameworks. Mars Auto’s unwavering commitment to autonomous trucking will continue to lead the industry forward.
