Autonomous Last Mile Delivery Market Size, Share, Growth Analysis, By Application (Retail, Food & Beverage), By Solution (Hardware, Services), By Range (Short Range, Long Range), By Region -Industry Forecast 2024-2031

North America dominates the global autonomous last mile delivery market due to several key factors, including advanced technological infrastructure, high investment in autonomous technology, and the presence of major players like Amazon, FedEx, and UPS actively developing and deploying autonomous delivery solutions. The fast-growing demand for efficient order delivery by consumers in the region facilitates the faster uptake of independent delivery systems. In addition, the favorable policies and regulations in North America together with the robust investments in research and development on autonomous vehicles and robotics create an environment that is favorable for innovations which cements the region’s dominance in the market of providing autonomous last mile delivery services.

The increasing demand for eco-friendly and efficient delivery solutions is one of the key factors making Europe the fastest growing region in the global autonomous last mile delivery market. The region’s emphasis on environmental policies, such as curb carbon emissions, is a major factor for the move towards implementing autonomous electric delivery vehicles and drones. The establishment of smart city concepts in Europe, on the other hand, encourages the use of autonomous technologies as well. Additionally, the phenomenon of e-commerce expansion, in conjunction with the growing labor deficit in the logistics industry, has increased the demand for mechanization. The ample market enhancement in Europe is also driven by the strategic investments and testbed projects of the market players, as well as state assistance in fostering innovations.
