Renault’s all-electric Kangoo Z.E. delivery van will be evaluated for 12 months by Australia Post.
Renault currently supplies Australia Post’s delivery vans and this new initiative represents the first venture for the highly-acclaimed all-electric Kangoo Z.E. in Australia.
Of course, Renault and it alliance partner Nissan are at the forefront of electric-powered light commercial vehicles and more than 14,000 Renault Kangoo Z.E. vans are already on-duty throughout the world.
Two all-electric Renault Kangoo Z.E vans will commence duties with Australia Post in Melbourne next month and will be followed by two more in Sydney. The electric charging station at Australia Post’s Port Melbourne Business Hub has been funded by the Victorian Government’s Department of Transport, Planning and Local Infrastructure.
“Operating the four electric vehicles in Melbourne and Sydney is an exciting step forward that tangibly demonstrates our commitment to the environment,” explained Australia Post’s Head of Environmental Sustainability, Andrew Sellick. “The vehicles will be powered by accredited GreenPower from renewable energy sources to ensure we are maximizing the potential to reduce our environmental impact.”
