Consequently, supply chain businesses can drastically reduce their fuel use by adopting electric vehicles for last-mile delivery service. This is a good attempt to save the environment and make transportation easy, safe, and affordable.

Cost-efficient logistics

That much is obvious! Switching to electric vehicles for last-mile delivery service will lower operating expenses in addition to lessening fuel use because fuel consumption and logistics costs are closely related. An electric three-wheeler has a 3.3 times lower operating cost than a traditional three-wheeler. It adds up to considerable cost savings over the course of the asset. A change to an electric delivery fleet is also no longer as expensive as it was a few years ago thanks to technological developments.

Convenient and easy to maintain

Electric vehicles require very low maintenance. Electric vehicles can be connected to an external power source to recharge, just like a smartphone. Most electric vehicles (EVs) can run for up to 12 hours and 80 to 100 miles after being fully charged. The maintenance of electric vehicles is also simpler because they have fewer auto parts than conventional vehicles, such as the engine,  pistons,  gasoline pumps, radiator, cooling systems, exhaust systems, spark plugs, and timing belts.

These cars simply require maintenance or battery replacement every couple of years. According to research by automotive data specialists Key Resources, servicing and maintaining an electric automobile is at least 30% cheaper than servicing and maintaining a combustion vehicle.

The Future of Last-Mile Belongs to EVs

Although the concept of electric vehicles has been around for a while, lately it has attracted a lot of interest from supply chain businesses because of its efficiency and sustainability. But the crucial question is whether implementing EVs in your last-mile operations is best for your company.
