MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyngn (NASDAQ: CYN) today announced that a record number of existing enterprise and Fortune 100 customers have expanded their DriveMod Tugger deployments, adding vehicles and extending autonomous operations across additional routes, workflows, and facilities.
"We believe that fleet expansion is one of the clearest indicators that Cyngn's autonomous vehicles solutions are delivering operational value," said Natalie Russell, CFO of Cyngn. "So, we are very excited to be setting a new record in existing customer expansion. What we're seeing is that customers who have deployed DriveMod Tuggers want even more DriveMod Tuggers."
Typically, customers begin with a focused deployment that automates a repetitive logistics route inside a factory or warehouse. Once the system proves reliable in daily operations, these same customers often expand. They add more DriveMod Tuggers and introduce autonomy into additional material-handling workflows across their facilities. This pattern reflects a key dynamic of industrial automation: deployments that prove their value often grow over time within the same customer.
This expansion activity builds on Cyngn's broader commercial progress. The company tripled the number of DriveMod Tuggers sold in 2025 compared to 2024, while increasing autonomous activity across its installed base. Cyngn also advanced its technology platform during the year through simulation work with NVIDIA Isaac Sim. Earlier this month, the company reported its deployment at a WEG electric motor facility. WEG is a global industrial manufacturer that makes billions in annual revenue.
In 2025, autonomous usage across Cyngn customer sites increased sharply as new deployments moved into full production. Total autonomous operating time more than doubled in the second half of the year, rising 113%.
According to Marty Petratis, Cyngn's VP of Sales, the company is on track to sell more in Q1 of 2026 than all of last year.
