Also in the province of Modena, 186 low-emission vehicles are operational, in addition to the electric tricycles and quadricycles already present in the area for the delivery of parcels and correspondence. The new supply is made up of 118 four-wheeled vehicles, including cars and vans equipped with latest generation low-emission endothermic engines and 68 completely full electric.
Green fleet in Modena
Thanks to these new means, from today also in the Modena area the mail travels completely “green” throughout the entire delivery process. The new vehicles in the Poste Italiane fleet have been modified and made functional to the needs of the postal service; for example, in some cars, the passenger seat is equipped with a particular arrangement for housing the boxes or particular shelving for the transport of parcels. Still others have ad hoc accessories for the mission of Poste Italiane, such as the system Keyless Entry&Start for remote driver recognition. Thanks to this technology, the doors and tailgate unlock automatically, making the operators’ work easier.
Towards carbon neutrality
The renewal of the company fleet from a sustainable perspective is part of Poste Italiane’s new 2024-2028 industrial plan: “The Connecting Platform” which aims at the transformation of logistics and the evolution of a commercial model serving customers, with the aim of looking at a new segment made up of small and medium-sized enterprises, contributing to the end-to-end logistical development of a postal network and a network increasingly driven by parcel management. A further step forward for the group led by CEO Matteo Del Fante towards achieving the goal of carbon neutrality 2050.
