Peugeot and Vay have equipped a Peugeot E-308 with the start-up's teledriving technology. Teledriving is a system that allows a car to be controlled remotely. Both companies want to investigate how the technology can be used in practice for both passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. A particular focus will be on B2B applications. This involves use cases for delivery on the so-called last mile.

The car manufacturer is showing the technology at Vivatech 2024 in Paris.

Vay has developed its remote driving technology for public road traffic. A few months ago, the company launched a comercial carsharing service in Las Vegas. According to Vay, teledriving could have a significant impact on short trip scenarios, such as the delivery of goods, the control of vehicle flow in logistics centers, and the parking service in carsharing or rental companies.
