Beverages sit inside a Neolix self-driving delivery vehicle during a launch event in Changzhou, Jiangsu province. Neolix expects to deliver a thousand of the vehicles, which resemble tiny vans, within the first year as it broadens out. Yu has been testing more than a hundred of the vehicles in enclosed areas such as Chinese campuses. While self-driving cars that carry passengers still face significant regulatory obstacles, Yu says the path has been easier for unmanned delivery vehicles. "When robotaxis really enter our daily lives, we may already have over a million self-driving delivery vehicles in use, and makers of those vehicles will be a key driver behind the autonomous-driving technology."
