Abstract | This study examines the economic implications of autonomous freight and logistics systems, focusing on cost efficiency, labour dynamics, infrastructure investment, and market disruption. The adoption of self-driving trucks, drones, and AI-powered logistics platforms presents opportunities for cost savings, increased efficiency, and environmental benefits, but also challenges in regulatory compliance, job displacement, and high initial investments. Through extensive quantitative analysis, case studies, and comparative assessments, this paper explores the financial impact and future viability of autonomous logistics. Findings indicate that automation in logistics enhances operational efficiency and reduces costs but requires substantial infrastructure and regulatory adaptation. The logistics and freight transportation industry is undergoing a significant transformation with the rise of automation and artificial intelligence (AI). The adoption of self-driving trucks, autonomous drones, and AI-powered logistics platforms is revolutionizing supply chain management, promising cost efficiency, enhanced operational capabilities, and sustainability benefits. However, this transformation also presents significant challenges, including regulatory hurdles, labor market disruptions, and high infrastructure investment requirements. This study aims to provide an in-depth economic analysis of autonomous freight and logistics systems, assessing the financial impact, cost savings, market disruptions, and future viability of automation in logistics. By employing quantitative data analysis, case studies, and comparative assessments, this research explores how automation is shaping the logistics industry. |
