The battery-powered version of the delivery truck is in New York.
The company's four-wheeled eQuad electric bikes made their debut in the city on Tuesday as part of the trial run of the delivery cycles in congested cities.
Nicole Pilet said in a video that they were testing out in New York based on the city's layout. If we can do well in the city, we can see how we can do better in other cities.
More than one thousand electric vehicles are in the delivery fleet of United Parcel Service. The company wants to become carbon neutral by the year 2050.
It's not the first company to experiment with e- bikes. FedEx added e-cargo bikes to its delivery services in London in December of 2021. FedEx wants to cut its carbon emissions by the year 2040.
The eQuad bike was cool according to Mohammad Islam.
He told AP that big trucks block the traffic. It's better for everyone if they do that.
Some delivery drivers think the electric fleet could be better. The program that Dyghton Anderson is working in fit his interests as a cyclist.
Anderson said it's pretty comfortable to ride to and from work all the way from the Bronx.
