UPS Orders a Fleet of 50 All-Electric Delivery Trucks

UPS has several ongoing electrification efforts to convert its massive fleet of delivery vehicles. They announced a new step in their partnership with Workhorse to build 50 all-electric delivery trucks. Workhorse is a Loveland, Ohio-based truck maker that has been developing several different electric powertrains and electric vehicle programs.

The company is working on its upcoming plug-in electric W-15 pickup truck and it recently unveiled an electric van geared toward delivery with drone for the last-mile.

They have also been working with UPS to convert their fleet and now they announced the deployment of 50 plug-in electric delivery trucks that they claim “will be comparable in acquisition cost to conventional-fueled trucks without any subsidies.”
