Finding
Delivery vans are the most electrified commercial segment, because their routes are short, fixed and end at a depot
Amazon's Rivian van fleet passed 40,000 in mid-2026, up from more than 30,000 at the end of 2025, and its electric vans of all makes delivered more than 2.4 billion packages in 2025. A parcel route of 100-150 miles a day fits inside one overnight charge with margin, so the van never needs a public charger and the depot can schedule charging around utility rates.
Other commercial segments are harder. Service pickups carry tools and tow trailers, which cuts range unpredictably; rideshare and rental cars rely on public fast charging, where downtime costs revenue. These segments are electrifying more slowly and unevenly, and the reasons are mostly operational rather than technical: where the vehicle sleeps, how far it goes, and whether the depot has enough power.
Amazon's mix also shows that fleets buy across suppliers: besides Rivian it runs Mercedes-Benz eSprinters and other vans in Europe, where it had more than 10,000 electric vans at the end of 2025. Depot power is the usual limit on how fast a fleet can add vehicles; see Depot Charging Costs.
