In a stride towards sustainable logistics, Expeditors in Dubai has launched a fully electric van. This step was essential for aligning our operations with strict environmental guidelines and emphasizing our commitment to responsible and innovative solutions.
Powering the Future with Clean Energy
The chosen vehicle, a 2024 Peugeot E-Expert Panel Van, boasts an impressive range and exclusively utilizes green energy. The van is entirely charged from a renewable energy source through solar panels, making it a 100% solar-powered vehicle. This eliminates the use of fossil fuels, minimizing our carbon footprint and contributing to a cleaner, healthier environment. Furthermore, the electric van offers several advantages over its diesel counterpart:
Delivering with Success
The electric van operates daily and covers a range of delivery locations, including Marina Mall Dubai, City Walk, Mall of the Emirates, and more. It has a 250 km range per full charge and a payload capacity of 950 kg, accommodating a maximum of 4 pallets.
With a 100% delivery success rate and a total monthly distance traveled of 2666 km, this initiative demonstrates the feasibility and efficiency of electric vehicles in our operations.

We will continue to explore and implement sustainable solutions across our global network, driving positive change and reinforcing our position as a leader in innovative and responsible logistics.
