Ford Delivers Ten Electric E-Transit Vans to DHL in Croatia

Ford Croatia has handed over ten fully electric Ford E-Transit vans to DHL, marking a significant step in the logistics company's commitment to sustainable operations. The handover ceremony took place at DHL's logistics center in Vukovini, Velika Gorica, with representatives from Ford of Europe also in attendance.

The delivered vehicles are the E-Transit Van L3H2 3P BEV configuration, featuring a long wheelbase, high roof, and a cargo volume of 11 cubic meters. Powered by a 135 kW (184 hp) electric motor and a 68 kWh battery, these vans can travel up to 255 kilometers on a single charge and carry a payload of up to 960 kilograms. This makes them well-suited for daily urban and intercity delivery routes.

This initiative aligns with DHL's "Go Green" service and Ford's strategy for developing electric commercial vehicles. The electric vans are ideal for logistics operations with predictable daily routes and return-to-base schedules, allowing for overnight charging. The lower operating costs and reduced maintenance compared to internal combustion engines are expected to yield long-term savings for DHL Express in Croatia, reinforcing its position as a reliable international delivery partner.
