Launch of Auto-Shuttle® Trial in Canada

CAD$1m project to deploy an autonomous shuttle on public roads in Kanata, Canada

Aurrigo International plc (AIM: AURR), a leading international provider of transport technology solutions, is pleased to announce a new project with Kanata North Business Association ("KNBA") and in collaboration with Area X.O, operated by Invest Ottawa, and several project partners, to deploy Canada's first all-season, medium-speed autonomous shuttle trial in Kanata North Technology Park, Canada's largest technology park.

The nine-seat Auto-Shuttle® has been engineered to operate in challenging Canadian conditions. With a total contract value of CAD$1 milion, the Auto-Shuttle® will be delivered in H2 2025 and, following a period of rigorous testing at Area X.O, Canada's all-weather R&D complex for next-gen technologies, the vehicle is due to begin service on public roads in Q4 2025, operating in mixed traffic at medium speeds.

This real-world Canadian testing environment provides valuable insights that will support the advancement of Aurrigo's autonomous airport shuttle solutions, which require reliable performance across diverse weather and operational conditions. Lessons learned from Ottawa's four-season shuttle trial will directly inform the refinement and deployment of Aurrigo's vehicles in airport settings worldwide, where safety, inclusivity, and adaptability to complex environments are critical.

David Keene, CEO of Aurrigo International, commented: "We are delighted to be working with KNBA and Area X.O to deliver an Auto-Shuttle® for use on public roads. Not only will this see our Auto-Shuttle® operate in all-weather conditions but also provides an opportunity to demonstrate its capabilities in a live traffic environment. As we continue to build on our go-to-market efforts to bring our cutting edge, autonomous technologies to airports around the world, this project demonstrates the robust capabilities of our products, provides valuable insights into live operations and strengthens our presence in the North American market."

Kelly Daize, Executive Director of KNBA, commented: "Kanata North is home to Canada's largest technology park and more than 540 companies shaping the future of mobility, connectivity, and innovation. This project is building on our previous autonomous vehicle's trials, utilizing a commercial motor vehicle, initially in the secure testbed at Area X.O and then moving on public roads in the Kanata North Tech Park in Ottawa, is not only a historic first for Canada-it's a powerful example of how industry, government, and community can come together to test real-world solutions that improve accessibility, advance safety, and create a blueprint for the future of transportation in all seasons."
