By 2025, Royal Mail make promises to only order electric new vehicles for use in the workplace by making them the only available vehicle to order.

The Royal Mail has announced that by 2025, only electric vehicles will be available to order. In the meantime, Postmen and women who need a car for their job can apply for a new zero tailpipe emissions company car scheme in April 2022 – perfect timing since this is when deliveries of gas-powered vans are scheduled to cease completely.

 

The Royal Mail recently announced that starting from 2025 all its employees would have access exclusively to electric cars. This move comes after testing showed they could reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions up 20% without compromising vehicle performance requirements or fuel efficiency standards over time with gradual changes as technology improves. Moreover it’s expected any initial costs incurred due these investments would also come down steadily thanks in part because cost savings on maintenance. 

 

The firm will also pay business mileage reimbursement at an appropriate EV rate on all diesel, petrol and hybrid vehicles. This aims to further boost the demand for EVs in their area.

 

The Royal Mail is all in on electric vehicles. The company announced that it plans to increase its fleet of EVs by a whopping ten-fold following an ambitious plan to introduce more than 1000 new EVs for use within the next three years.

 

The Royal Mail’s all-electric target will also ensure that more of the company’s staff have access to the benefits of EVs through its salary sacrifice scheme.A few days ago, they committed to a 10x increase in EV usage across their entire fleet as part of this initiative – and we can’t wait until these awesome changes start affecting our customers too.

 

In addition to launching a low-emission gas truck, it also announced the launch of 29 new Bio-Compressed Natural Gas (Bio CNG) trucks. 

 

Jenny Hall, Director of Corporate Affairs at Royal Mail, said: “We have already revealed our ambition to turn our fleet to alternative fuel vehicles in order to do the right thing by the communities we serve.

“It makes sense for us to focus on company cars too and we hope that this new scheme will benefit our colleagues while reducing overall company emissions further.”
