We are on a mission
Today, 90% of urban trips consist of one passenger traveling 5 miles, and the majority of deliveries are carried out via 2-ton ICE vehicles. Using large legacy vehicles is not sustainable from emissions, gridlock, and energy use perspective. We are right-sizing driverless transportation, making it smart for the city and affordable for the planet.
Team
Faction was founded in February 2020 by an expert team that has collectively developed and launched autonomous vehicle systems ranging from light electric vehicles to heavy-duty, Class 8 semi-trucks.
