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.
The electric Sprinter will be available with three battery choices and multiple body configurations.
The all-electric 2022 E-Transit will be available with a starting price under $45,000 and features a targeted maximum payload of 3,800 pounds with up to 487.3 cubic feet of cargo space.
Now available at dealers nationwide, the 2021-MY Nissan NV Cargo Van features a starting MSRP of $30,540.
Utilimaster has expanded its product portfolio to include the Velocity F2, a Class 2 purpose-built walk-in van designed to meet the rapidly growing global e-commerce and delivery demand.
For the 2021-MY, Ford made ergonomic enhancements for drivers and added an available Parcel Delivery Package. This follows a major refresh in 2020, which added a Crew version, a new standard engine, standard active safety technologies, and embedded telematics to the Transit van family.
