Amazon continues to advance itsDrone delivery service layoutLater, Wing, a drone company under Google's parent company Alphabet, announced the launch of a new cargo model, which is advertised as having a cargo weight capacity twice that of the previous model and can transport packages of up to 2 kilograms.
This drone will be able to deliver at a speed of 105 kilometers per hour within a total range of 20 kilometers. If the round-trip distance is taken into account, it means that the most common delivery distance must be within 10 kilometers, but it can also meet most small package delivery needs.
The new drone is expected to be put into operation in 2025, and Wing revealed that it will build more different drones to meet different cargo transportation needs. At the same time, it plans to scale up drones so that goods can be transported more efficiently.
Compared to traditional delivery methods using vehicles, although drones have certain limitations on a single round-trip range, they are not affected by conditions such as ground traffic and vehicle parking, so they can deliver goods more efficiently. At the same time, they can also reduce the carbon emissions generated by the delivery of small packages by vehicle, as well as the waste of human resources.
Currently, Wing has beenDallas-Fort Worth, TexasIt provides drone cargo services and has launched service tests in international markets such as Australia, Finland, and Ireland.
