Amazon Accelerates Electric Vehicle Revolution. Aims to fully electrify its 100,000+ delivery van fleet by 2030

Amazon has reached a remarkable milestone in its electric vehicle (EV) initiative, deploying 15,000 EVs since co-founding The Climate Pledge in 2019. 

The company has accelerated its timeline to fully electrify its 100,000+ delivery van fleet by 2030, a decade ahead of its initial plan.

Amazon's EV fleet has already delivered over 800 million packages in the US, with Rivian vans leading the charge. The company is also expanding its electric fleet to ocean freight service in California, introducing fully electric Volvo semi-trucks for heavy cargo containers and customer package loads.

To support its growing EV fleet, Amazon has installed over 17,000 chargers at more than 120 delivery stations across the US. 

CEO Andy Jassy emphasizes Amazon's commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2040, with electric vehicles playing a crucial role in this strategy.

The company is exploring additional eco-friendly solutions, including electric cargo bikes and drones. With its accelerated EV timeline and innovative approach, Amazon is paving the way for a greener, more sustainable future.
