UPS to trial new electric vehicles in London & Paris

Post by kamnet »

UPS will be testing new electric delivery vehicles, and are working with British design and manufacturing firm Arrival. A peek at the new design here:

This will be in addition to their partnership with Workhorse Group to convert 50 of their iconic Morgan Olson step vans from diesel to electrics with a 160 km range:

Workhorse is also developing a potential drone delivery system to assist package delivery drivers in rural areas:

And in addition to their commitment to buying Daimler / Mitsubishi Fuso Trucks E-FUSO Vison One semis with a 350 km range for intra-city and regional delivery:

And in addition to their commitment to being the first customer of Tesla Semis with autonomous driving and an 800 km range for long-haul delivery:
