Peugeot has been appointed to supply Royal Mail’s latest tranche of electric vans in the UK, which the company announced in July would be added to the fleet in time for the festive peak.
Among the 2,100 electric vehicles supplied in this latest deal are 1,100 E-Partner vans built at Ellesmere Port, the UK’s first EV-only volume manufacturing plant.
Peugeot, alongside its sister Stellantis brands, is the only brand to manufacture electric vans in volume in the UK. The brand is also supplying 1,000 fully-electric E-Expert vans as part of the deal.
Peugeot has supplied Royal Mail with vehicles since 2009, and electric vans since 2014 when Peugeot delivered the first E-Partner to Royal Mail.
Royal Mail expects the new Peugeot vans to reduce its total emissions by about 6,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year when fully operational.
