Inceptio Technology became the first company in China to receive the driverless public road-testing permit for L4 autonomous driving heavy-duty trucks.

SHANGHAI, June 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- On Jun 24^th, 2022, autonomous trucking startup Inceptio Technology was approved to test its L4 autonomous trucks without drivers in the driver's seat on public roads in Deqing, Zhejiang.
