Abstract

The development of mobility has always had a considerable influence on economic, social and political structures. Without efficient transport systems, the industrial revolutions of the last centuries would not have been possible or only to a much lesser extent. With the advancing digitalization and the development of automated and autonomous vehicles, new framework conditions are emerging, which are leading to far-reaching changes in the transport sector. In this contribution, the discussions regarding the existing automated and autonomous vehicles in the field of the main freight transport modes as well as possible developments will be presented and considered in the light of future demand structures.
