With DriveMod, Your Tuggers —
Autonomously haul and tow thousands of pounds of heavy goods — indoors or out.
Leverage multiple, redundant, and intelligent layers of safety.
Can be remotely managed and monitored via the FMS or on-vehicle display.
Execute missions based on a variety of flexible, programmable skills — including "auto-unhitch".
Safely navigate sites without the need for special infrastructure.
Can be switched into manual mode and driven by a human.
DriveMod Tuggers never take a vacation, don't make human errors, and always get the job done.
We've partnered with Motrec, a trusted industrial vehicle manufacture, to integrate our DriveMod Kit into their fleet of heavy-duty tuggers to transform them into intelligent self-driving robots. With its all-steel unibody construction chassis and dual-tire front fork, it boasts ruggedness, stability, and agility.

Key Difference Between AMRs & AGVs is Technological Sophistication
There is a broad spectrum of sophistication within the autonomous vehicle market and it's important to understand the differences. AMR technology represents an evolution in mobile robotics which is why Cyngn's vehicles are more flexible and intelligent than traditional AGVs.

360°Awareness Keeps Employees Safe
Our advanced safety suite enables our autonomous tuggers to safely execute the most demanding industrial jobs and will make an incredible impact on how you get work done.
Collision Avoidance System
We offer multiple layers of safety. Virtual bumper doubles the number of safety systems, and our 3D lidar brings 360° visibility and vigilance to obstructions.
Safety Lights & Audio Cues
Color-coded LEDs communicate vehicle status and intent. Audible cues like beeps and horn honks indicate when the vehicle is turning, departing, or arriving at a stop.
Emergency Stop Buttons
While we enable you to program and control the vehicle remotely, our units come equipped with multiple E-Stop buttons to instantly bring it to a hault.
With no special infrastructure or magnetic strips to install, we can get our DriveMod Tugger operating in your facility in a matter of days.
Sean Stetson
VP of Engineering, Cyngn
"DriveMod turns every shift into a productivity powerhouse. On average, companies that use DriveMod Tuggers have seen a 34% increase in productivity and a 64% reduction in labor costs."
Deploy Missions at the Touch of a Button
Multiple ways to direct and orchestrate your DriveMod Fleet
On-Vehicle Display: The most common way to control the vehicle is from the vehicle itself. Our on-vehicle display enables teams to send vehicles to other stations, wait for work to get done, and switch into manual mode.
FMS: Operators can access advanced mission planning and workflow management capabilities from the cloud-based FMS.
Facility-Wide Tablets: Finally, you can set up tablets throughout your facility that work just like elevator buttons. Workers can press the "Call Vehicle" button and the vehicle will arrive in short order.
Cyngn Autonomy in Action
"Cyngn’s DriveMod really unlocks the potential for us to increase throughput and decrease time to market from the manufacturing floor. Their vehicles enable us to concentrate on efficiency and we’re really excited to increase profitability, improve our service levels, and get to market faster than our competitors."
