Could autonomous vehicles put last-mile delivery on the fast track?

Transport, integral to our daily lives, is currently undergoing a structural reform – towards digitalization and decarbonization. The COVID pandemic has accelerated the shifts, with everyone adopting new norms. But while social distancing and travel restrictions have meant most people are much less itinerant, other transport sectors are experiencing huge growth. In the parcel delivery sector, the number of items distributed worldwide increased by 17.5%, in 2020 reaching a new high of nearly 25 billion items.
