Gatik, a US startup running self-driving box trucks on short delivery routes, raised $200 million led by Qatar Investment Authority and Koch Disruptive Technologies. The round follows a multiyear agreement with PepsiCo, under which 41 driverless trucks move Frito-Lay products to stores in three US regions. The company said the money will fund hiring and expansion into new markets but did not disclose its valuation.
