Abstract
This work present an analysis of Vehicles Routing Problem (VRP) in the logistics and distibution of goods in las decade. This is not something new, it has been analyzed and studied since 1959, but today, technological development has transformed and contributed to this problem with proposal for use of electric vehicles and drones, with all the advantages and restrictions that they entail.
