Did you think Migros, steeped in tradition, doesn't think out-of-the-box? Then convince yourself of the opposite! Experience "Migronomous", Migros' latest innovative sustainability project, up close and personal and learn more about the project from experts.
Migros, the Swiss startup LOXO and Schindler are testing a new delivery service called "Migronomous". The self-driving vehicle, powered by an electric motor, was developed in Switzerland and delivers groceries from the Migros store in Ebikon (LU) to Schindler's corporate campus. It is the first time such an innovative delivery service has been in operation on Swiss roads.
Migros has been committed to sustainable transport for years. The retailer relies on a multi-technology strategy for maximum CO2 emission reduction. This means that an ever-increasing proportion of different low-CO2 forms of propulsion - trucks with electric motors, bio-gas and hydrogen propulsion - are used in road transport. We invite you to the exclusive Migros stand tour at Powerfuel Week 2023 at the Museum of Transport in Lucerne.
- Experience the innovative Migronomous project first hand
- Learn more about the sustainable road transport of Migros
- Ask your burning questions to the Migros experts
- Get to know Migros as a tech employer

The Return trip is planned at 16:53, and we should arrive at 17:50 in Zurich HB. You can choose your public transport fare options when signing-up.
You will have 2 hours after the guided tour (approx. 1h) to explore the Museum of Transport on your own. Since you will be on the train at 12h, you can take some snacks with you.😉 (There is also a restaurant at the Museum of Transportation. However, the guided tour is scheduled right after our arrival.)
The standard price is CHF 10, please be sure to pay within four days after registration (either online or cash at the VIS office) in order to secure your spot. Also, you must pay no later then Friday, 12. May at 16:00, as we need some time to buy the train tickets. VIS members owning a full-fare travel card only pay CHF 1. (The website seems to disallow charging nothing for some groups of participants. However, VIS will offer you a beer for the trip.)
