While the world is still battling the COVID-19 pandemic, everyone is still encouraged to practice social distancing and to opt for contactless payment and delivery as much as possible. In China, it appears that KFC has started deploying 5G autonomous vehicles which allow customers to purchase their finger licking good meals without human interaction.

The unmanned vehicles were spotted in front of a metro station outside the city of Shanghai. From the looks of it, you can place an order on the screen and it accepts payment via QR-code. After payment is made, the door will open for you to collect your order.

The vehicles are from Neolix and it appears to be identical to the 5G-connected vehicles that are used in hospitals in Thailand for contactless delivery of medical supplies.
