How Autonomous Vehicles are Revolutionizing the

Last-Mile Logistics Industry

Cybersecurity will be one of the key concerns as last-mile logistics companies look to enhance
efficiency with autonomous vehicles.

By Anar Mammadov, CEO, Senpex Technologies

Travelers who hail a taxi in San Francisco may be surprised as they settle into the backseat to discover
their vehicle lacks a driver. In August 2023, California regulators approved the operation of autonomous
taxi services in that state, where Cruise and Waymo had already been providing driverless rides with
some restrictions.

The growing acceptance of robotaxis is good news for delivery companies who see autonomous vehicles
as a tool for reshaping last-mile logistics. It indicates that AI-driven delivery vehicles could soon be a
common site on roadways, harnessing the power of technology to make last-mile logistics more efficient
and affordable.
