The retail giant, which already runs delivery drones in Texas and California, intends to utilise the technology at one site in the UK.
Amazon’s new MK30 drone which will be used as part of its Prime Air drone delivery system coming to the UK in 2024
The rollout is part of an expansion of drone deliveries within the company’s retail business, which will also see it be introduced in Italy and expanded to a third state in the US – drone deliveries already operate in California and Texas. “As part of our continued efforts to innovate for customers, we are excited to announce the expansion of Prime Air delivery internationally, for the first time outside the US.“We have built a safe, reliable delivery service and have partnered very closely with regulators and communities.
The announcement came alongside the unveiling the company’s latest drone for deliveries – the MK30 – which Amazon says can fly twice as far as previous Prime Air models, is quieter, and able to fly in more diverse weather conditions.
