A FedEx delivery driver just completed a 260-mile drive using a BrightDrop Zevo 600 electric van, setting a Guinness World Record.
FedEx Express has taken delivery of the first electric vans as part of a 500-unit order from BrightDrop. The vehicles are in operation in California.
In its Q2 earnings announcement Wednesday, GM said it would leverage its BrightDrop business to help it launch a full-size electric cargo van and medium-duty truck.
Electric vehicle startup Arrival announced it would build a ride-hailing specific electric car for Uber to use in the U.K. and Europe. Separately, Uber said it will now deliver everyday essential items to customers from Gopuff in the U.S.
