Today, with the rapid development of e-commerce, the last-mile delivery of express delivery is undergoing revolutionary changes. Intelligent unmanned delivery vehicles have achieved all-weather and all-scenario instant delivery services through technologies such as autonomous navigation, environmental perception, and intelligent decision-making. These unmanned vehicles equipped with smart lockers can not only precisely plan delivery routes but also achieve multi-vehicle collaborative operations through cloud dispatching systems, reducing the cost of a single delivery to less than 30% of that of traditional manual labor. In pilot areas of cities like Beijing and Shanghai, unmanned vehicles complete an average of 200 deliveries per day, with a utilization rate three times higher than that of traditional tricycles. The efficiency of night deliveries has even increased by 400%.

The large-scale application of unmanned vehicles is reshaping the landscape of the logistics industry. When the distribution process is fully unmanned, the entire supply chain will form a three-dimensional network with intelligent sorting centers as the hubs and unmanned vehicles as the capillaries. Through the 5G vehicle-road coordination system, unmanned vehicles can be seamlessly integrated with intelligent warehousing and drone delivery, upgrading the traditional "segmented" operation of logistics to an "end-to-end" intelligent closed loop. This transformation not only solves the problem of labor shortage, but also makes the distribution cost curve show an exponential downward trend - for every additional 1,000 unmanned vehicles, the marginal cost can decrease by 12%, forming a significant scale effect.

According to industry predictions, by 2030, the number of unmanned delivery vehicles in China will exceed 2 million, undertaking over 65% of urban express delivery volume. The popularization of this new type of logistics infrastructure not only means that consumers will enjoy faster and more environmentally friendly delivery services, but also marks that the entire logistics industry is transforming towards a new paradigm of intelligence and low-carbonization. As driverless vehicles are deeply integrated with technologies such as new energy and big data, a more efficient and sustainable modern logistics system is accelerating its formation.
