The delivery robots market is segmented by number of wheels into three, four, six wheels, and others. Among these segments, the six wheels segment is projected to hold the largest market share by the end of 2021. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the enhanced stability features achieved by the utilization of a six-wheeled robot chassis, which otherwise is not achievable with other wheel types. Moreover, the six-wheeled robots, owing to the multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) wheel configuration, allows the robot to travel through bumpy roads or even un-even surfaces at high speeds.
