As part of the innovation project ahoi (“Automation of Hamburg’s On-Demand Service with Integration into Public Transport”), Verkehrsbetriebe Hamburg-Holstein GmbH (vhh.mobility) and IAV GmbH (Ingenieurgesellschaft Auto und Verkehr) have agreed on a research and development cooperation. The aim of the collaboration is the development and deployment of autonomous shuttles in the Hamburg district of Harburg. The vehicles will be supplied by the Austrian manufacturer eVersum.
Delivery and test operation from 2026
The cooperation initially involves the development and delivery of five autonomous shuttles. Test operations on public roads in Harburg are set to begin in 2026 - initially with a safety driver onboard and within a closed user group. In the long term, the fleet is expected to expand to up to 20 autonomous vehicles.
Technology and Equipment of the Shuttles
The vehicles used are based on the electrically operated E-Shuttle from eVersum. The shuttles are 6.90 meters long and offer space for nine seated passengers. Additionally, there is room for a wheelchair or a stroller.
The autonomous driving technology comes from IAV. The system consists of a sensor package with LiDAR, camera, and radar systems, as well as control software. This captures the environment, recognizes objects, and controls the vehicle along the designated route.
Integration into hvv hop
The autonomous shuttles are to be integrated into the existing on-demand service hvv hop. hvv hop is part of the Hamburg Transport Association (HVV) and complements public transport in Harburg with flexible trips without a fixed schedule or route. Passengers book the trips via an app, where the algorithm brings together people with similar destinations to form carpools. Currently, the hvv hop operation uses electric vehicles from the British manufacturer LEVC. The vehicles offer six seats, are barrier-free accessible, and can also transport strollers. The service is available around the clock and requires, in addition to a valid HVV ticket, a surcharge of two euros per trip.
Goal: Mixed Operation by the End of 2025
The ahoi project aims to further develop hvv hop into an on-demand service with a mixed fleet of autonomous and manually controlled vehicles by the end of 2025. The new autonomous shuttles represent an important step towards a fully integrated, future-proof mobility offering in public transport.
