As the last-mile delivery segment explodes, manufacturers large and small have answered the challenge with a wild variety of vehicles—and the delivery “van” may never be the same.
Mercedes-Benz said its Sustaineer “technology demonstrator,” based on the eSprinter battery-electric van, is “a tangible impression of just how sustainability in urban delivery operations may look in the future.”
The updated vehicle is a commercial Class 2 full-size van designed for businesses, construction jobsites, and commercial fleets.
A maker of all-electric power systems, SEA Electric can customize new cab chassis or convert existing ones for the light-, medium-, and heavy-duty truck classes.
These detailed specs, factors, and action items should be thoroughly considered in purchasing the right van for your commerce or service operation.
General Motors has revealed a new electric delivery vehicle that will feature an estimated 250 miles of range following the announcement of its BrightDrop business unit, which is designed to offer a new ecosystem of electric first-to-last-mile products, software, and services for delivery and logistics companies.
The Class 1 commercial vehicle from Electric Last Mile Solutions pushes the concept of an efficient, connected, electric last-mile van into daily reality.
The all-electric model, starting at $33,000, will be offered in two initial sizes starting in 2022. The smaller model offers 230 cu. ft. of cargo volume behind the bulkhead, while the larger model offers 450 cu. ft.
Next year, small fleets will face increased order-to-delivery times, supply and product availability issues, and rising costs. What can you do to prepare?
The E-Transit is available in eight body-style configurations, including cargo van, chassis cab, and cutaway versions, with three roof heights and three body lengths. The E-Transit cargo area is the same as the current gasoline-powered Transit van.
