Last Mile, Greatest Impact

How Autonomous Tech Reinvents Urban Delivery

The Last Mile – Small Distance, Huge Cost

In today’s age of e-commerce, urban growth and next-day expectations, the last mile is the bottleneck of logistics. Studies show that the last mile accounts for up to 53% of total delivery costs. Add congestion, CO₂ emissions, scarce parking, and driver shortages, and you’ve got a pressing problem.

According to PAVE Europe, the global last-mile delivery market has already reached over USD 155 billion​. Autonomous vehicles are poised to solve it.

Autonomous Doesn’t Mean Driverless – It Means Efficient, Scalable, Safe

Autonomous delivery vehicles must navigate tight spaces with surgical precision. Whether it's delivery robots, mid-mile shuttles or small cargo vans – all require a robust digital nervous system. That’s where Arnold NextG steps in.

Our NX NextMotion System delivers a fully electronic, fail-operational Drive-by-Wire platform designed for the demands of urban logistics:

• Cutting edge sensor logic for validated control
• Fully mechanical-free actuation – ideal for compact units
• OTA updates & real-time diagnostics
• Seamless integration with autonomous stacks

It’s not just a control system – it’s the foundation for scalable, safe, cost-effective last-mile fleets.

Why Arnold NextG?

The last mile is a complex challenge. That’s why it needs a platform that works in any environment – quiet, compact, and trusted. Arnold NextG’s NX NextMotion platform:

• reduces operating costs with zero mechanical wear
• increases delivery frequency with precise control
• enables cabless vehicles for higher cargo volume

The last mile won’t just be automated – it will be reinvented.
