This will be done through the supply of mini-commercial van BEVs that can meet customers’ needs in the delivery industry by providing practical and sustainable means of transportation. By leveraging their collective expertise in vehicle design, electrification, and technology, the companies aim to create solutions that reduce emissions, lower operational costs, and improve efficiency in last-mile delivery. This partnership is a significant step toward a greener, more sustainable future for commercial transportation.
