Say hello to your electric parcels – the commercial viability of EVs for last-mile delivery

The past two years witnessed enormous changes in transportation and last-mile delivery services, especially after the pandemic. It has not only increased consumers’ dependence on doorstep delivery but has also opened up new opportunities. For instance, leading last-mile delivery service providers, such as FedEx, Borzo, Amazon, Swiggy, and so on, have started adopting EVs—a key accelerator for India’s e-mobility revolution—as their delivery fleet.

We have seen how the Ukraine war impacted the fuel price hike. With sky-high petrol and diesel costs, EVs are proving to be the most reliable alternative. Using EVs for last-mile delivery services ensures a significantly lower cost of operations.
