Talk:Peloton Technology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi! This page should not be deleted because this company meets the general notability guideline that it has received "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Peloton Technology has been covered over the last three years in national publications including Popular Science[1], Wired[2], Wall Street Journal[3], Fortune[4], the Chicago Tribune[5], and is featured regularly in industry publications including Transport Topics, Commercial Carrier Journal, and Fleet Owner (see article citations for additional coverage). Apart from the general concept of platooning (the page for which is terribly out of date and I intend to update), this company is specifically notable because it is the only private company to have tested platooning technology on public roads in the United States, and based on news coverage is the closest to commercialization. If editing the article further to reflect this would help highlight the notability, please let me know. I was trying to ensure the article did not sound like an advertisement. Thank you for the consideration.
