Update: 2025-11-17
Description
Volvos cancellation of Luminars lidar sensor contract escalates a public dispute, causing financial strain for Luminar, which is now facing bankruptcy, staff layoffs, and SEC investigation. The long-standing relationship between the two companies, with Volvo investing in Luminar and integrating its technology, makes the conflict surprising and concerning. Volvos decision to remove Iris lidar from its new vehicles and postpone Halo sensor use has led to Luminar filing a claim for damages and halting Iris sensor production for Volvo, threatening Luminars revenue and causing supplier contract breaches.
