This article describes the principle of operation of an unmanned vehicle. The cargo "car of the future", which will guarantee the safety, timeliness of the workflow, be based on automatic control without the participation of the "human factor" and optimize labor resources. The manufacturers' market is making every technical and financial effort to implement this type of car, most companies have already launched test versions of equipment in order to "keep up with the times". In order to have a complete picture of the available capacities and assess the development in this segment of technological progress, an analysis of unmanned trucks of the foreign market is presented. But taking into account the difference in the scale of the territory, terrain and weather conditions makes it clear that Russian production should take as a basis other distinctive features when developing this type of transport. The Russian experience of the introduction of an unmanned truck in harsh climatic conditions in the fields is also studied and the further path of drones on Russian roads is considered.
