ComfortDelGro to launch driverless shuttle service in Punggol by 2026

It will use advanced sensors such as LiDAR, radar, and cameras.

ComfortDelGro will roll out an autonomous shuttle service in Punggol in early 2026, expanding its driverless transport offerings in partnership with global AV technology firm Pony.ai.

Residents will be able to book rides through the ComfortDelGro Zig app.

The shuttles will run on fixed routes linking residential estates, transport hubs, and community facilities to complement existing public transport.

ComfortDelGro said the vehicles will use advanced sensors such as LiDAR, radar, and cameras, along with high-precision mapping, to ensure safe and reliable operations.

Each shuttle will undergo extensive testing and will include safety features such as obstacle detection and emergency braking.

Trained safety operators will be on board during the initial phase.

Group CEO SK Cheng said the launch builds on the company’s AV trials in Guangzhou and Singapore and will create new career opportunities as autonomous transport expands.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
