UAV already stands for "unmanned aerial vehicle." Besides, using both "unmanned" and "autonomous" is redundant. Anyway, the standard abbreviation for autonomous vehicles is AV.
Buggy whip salesmen gonna have to deal with it.
I suppose a vehicle that is being driven by remote control is unmanned but not autonomous.
Sure, but an autonomous vehicle is by definition unmanned.
An autonomous vehicle doesn't (in theory) require a driver, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have one.
