In 2023, local small item deliveries carried out by drones costed decisively less than the costs of deliveries using human drivers, costing only 0.25 cents per trip compared to the human cost of 5.40 cents per trip. This is due to the lower operating costs of autonomous vehicles, such as the price of fuel and the expense of hiring and training a human being to operate the vehicle.
