The present invention discloses an autonomous unmanned vehicle (500) designed to absorb collision impact for delivering the packages to the delivery destinations. The unmanned vehicle (500) is capable of operating autonomously on paved roadways or pathways. The present invention includes a hollow platform (107) for enclosing control systems, a bottom frame (106) secured to the hollow platform (107) for receiving a load, a top frame (103) for sheltering the load from the top; a collapsible shell (109) forming an encasing for enclosing the load, having protrusions for protection of load from collision impact, a plurality of retractable members (104) for expanding and contracting of the shell structure, a plurality of outwardly protruding wheels (108) configured at each corner of the hollow platform (107) for vehicle movement, and a driving mechanism for controlling toggling movement of the retractable members (104) between various positions. In consideration that the vehicle does not carry passengers, the size and/or motor power of the vehicle may be significantly reduced as compared to conventional passenger vehicles.
