Autonomous Logistic Solutions Sdn. Bhd. (ALS)on 20th October launched its Level 4 (L4) driverless RoboVan for public-road operations, the first time a Malaysian company has deployed a fully driverless vehicle on Malaysian public roads with a valid licence plate.
The launch took place at Transport Expo Asia (TXA) 2026 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) and was witnessed by the Minister of Transport, YB Anthony Loke Siew Fook alongside Alan Chong Managing Director of of ALS, Terry Zhou, Managing Director of Zelostech Singapore, Mr. Loo Chuan Boon, Chief Operating Officer of the Selangor Information Technology & Digital Economy Corporation (Sidec), and Mr. Kamarul Ariffin Abdul Samad, Chief Executive Officer of Cyberview Sdn Bhd.
Following the launch, the RoboVan will undergo a six-month public-road trial along the 22km Cyberjaya Malaysia Autonomous Vehicle (MyAV) testing route in mixed-traffic conditions. ALS will track autonomous driving performance, operating hours, distance travelled, trips completed, system interventions and other key performance indicators. The findings will inform the development of Malaysia's autonomous vehicle ecosystem and support the move towards commercial deployment of autonomous logistics.
From Private Compound to Public Roads
The launch follows several months of progressive testing by ALS, beginning with private-compound trials with Pos Malaysia in January 2026, officiated by Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil, followed by a live demonstration in Shah Alam in June 2026, officiated by Selangor State Executive Councillor for Investment, Trade and Mobility YB Tuan Ng Sze Han, and the opening of Malaysia’s first dedicated Remote Operations Centre (ROC) for autonomous logistics in Cyberjaya in July 2026. Each stage has progressively increased operational complexity while maintaining a defined route and an approved Operational Design Domain (ODD).
Within that ODD, the RoboVan performs the complete driving task with no driver or passenger onboard, under remote supervision from the ROC. Built solely to carry goods, the vehicle and its operating system are designed around cargo, route-based logistics and remote fleet supervision, without the added requirements of carrying occupants.
The route runs through business districts, educational institutions, MRT stations, commercial centres, intersections and pedestrian crossings, conditions a private compound cannot replicate.
The RoboVan uses technology developed by Zelostech, for which ALS is the strategic Malaysian partner. ALS leads localisation and operations in Malaysia, and the trial will build local capabilities in autonomous vehicle operations, engineering, fleet management and remote supervision.
“As a local Malaysian company, we’re proud to reach this milestone and bring fully autonomous vehicles onto our public roads. For us, this is more than just a licence plate. It’s about making autonomous technology a reality in Malaysia, showing what local companies can achieve and building the foundation for the future of autonomous logistics in our country and the region.”

Cyberview: Building the Environment for Autonomous Mobility
As Tech Hub Developer of Cyberjaya, Cyberview introduced the MyAV testing route in 2020 with an initial 7km, adding 15km in 2025 to bring the network to 22km. The route gives autonomous vehicle developers a dedicated environment to test and refine new mobility technologies in real urban conditions.
"ALS’s fully driverless RoboVan is a proud moment for Cyberjaya. It showcases the capability of local innovators and shows why a dedicated hub where advanced technologies can be tested in real-world conditions matters. Cyberview will keep championing Malaysian-made sovereign technologies, providing the ecosystem, infrastructure and platforms innovators need to scale bold ideas, in Cyberjaya and beyond."
— Kamarul Ariffin Abdul Samad, Chief Executive Officer, Cyberview Sdn Bhd
SIDEC: Advancing Selangor's Autonomous Mobility Ecosystem
The trial builds on the ROC launched jointly by Sidec, ALS and Cyberview in July 2026, which provides the operational infrastructure to monitor and support Level 4 autonomous vehicles on public roads. During the trial, the ROC will monitor the RoboVan through live video feeds, vehicle telemetry, route status and system diagnostics, adding a layer of operational oversight and safety.
With Cyberjaya located in Selangor, the trial places the state at the centre of real-world autonomous vehicle validation in Malaysia, generating data that can inform future national standards and deployment frameworks.
"Sidec is committed to making Selangor the place where autonomous mobility moves from testing to real-world use. We co-launched the Remote Operations Centre with ALS and Cyberview in July, and today shows what that infrastructure makes possible: a Malaysian company running a fully driverless vehicle on public roads, with proper oversight in place. We'll keep backing companies like ALS as they take the next steps, because the experience built here is what will allow this technology to scale safely across the country."
— Loo Chuan Boon, Chief Operating Officer
Regulatory Approvals
The trial follows the regulatory approvals required under Malaysia's autonomous vehicle framework, with engagement across the Ministry of Transport (MoT), the Road Transport Department (JPJ), the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD), the Ministry of Digital, and Futurise.
The valid licence plate allows the RoboVan to move from controlled testing to an approved public-road trial, within which ALS will operate to set parameters and report structured operational data.
What's Next
ALS focuses on point-to-point logistics: the movement of goods between warehouses, logistics hubs, manufacturing facilities, ports, airports and other industrial sites. The Cyberjaya trial is its next step towards deploying autonomous logistics fleets across Malaysia.
For Cyberjaya and Selangor, the deployment strengthens the region's position as a real-world testbed for next-generation mobility. For Malaysia, it marks the shift from demonstrating what autonomous vehicles can do to building the operational experience needed to run them on public roads.
