This article is devoted to the review of the world market of unmanned vehicles. It is noted that the global automotive market is now showing two key trends. This is electric mobility (replacement of batteries in electric vehicles with fuel cells) and the transition to digitally connected cars. For the formation of future mobility in the EU, for example, there are two key areas. First, it is a transition from managing people (a car driven by a driver) to a car without a driver and controlled by computing and communication, and secondly, a transition from individual to common ownership of vehicles. In the EU, issues of the development and use of unmanned vehicles are considered at the highest level and are considered a strategic area of robotics and artificial intelligence, including, and are the subject of the most serious scientific areas. The article also provides an overview of US legislative initiatives aimed at developing and regulating the market for unmanned vehicles. In fact, it is proposed to allocate special lanes with the described mode of use of unmanned vehicles throughout the country. It is noted, for example, that the deployment of unmanned vehicles makes it possible to more densely pack cars on US roads. Increasing the speed while reducing the intervals between vehicles from a two-second standard to 0.5 seconds can increase the number of cars and the capacity of roads three times. As a result, 50-70% penetration of unmanned vehicles into the US fleet can increase throughput by about 50 percent. Alleviating this way, alleviating the congestion of “bottlenecks” on the roads can subsequently save $ 48 billion in fuel costs and time.
