EAV and Zoomo team up to expand urban last mile logistics options

More vehicles offerings are now available on the Zoomo last mile electric fleet offering following a deal with EAV, a provider of sustainable transport solutions.

The EAV and Zoomo team up sees the vehicle manufacturer join the provider’s expanding roster.  The urban mobility’s cutting edge hardware inclues cargo bikes that are directly replacing vans. Zoomo’s platform encompasses light electric vehicle hardware, maintenance, telematically enabled software and financing capabilities. Operating in the States, UK, Europe, Canada and Australia, Zoomo works with a lot of household names, including Deliveroo, Amazon, FedEx, hived, Pizza Hut, JustEat Takeaway and more.

The announcement comes soon after Transport for London (TfL) relaunched its van scrappage scheme, offering grants for businesses to replace petrol vans with electric vehicles, including e-cargo bikes.

Michael Johnson, Co-Founder and CRO, Zoomo, said: “We are bringing the vehicle leasing model from the automotive space to light electric vehicles. By integrating different vehicle types into our platform, like EAV e-cargo bikes, with leasing, servicing and telematically enabled software solutions, we are able to provide customers in urban logistics with a one-stop solution for all their delivery fleet needs.

“EAV’s cargo bikes are highly innovative and will enable us to offer more efficient and sustainable fleet solutions to our customers in existing and new segments, like parcel delivery.”

As EAV’s Official Fleet Partner, Zoomo will offer financing for EAV’s range of vehicles alongside their maintenance guarantee and telematically enabled fleet management software.

The EAV, with its 2m3 of cargo space, has the potential to replace the millions of vans congesting our cities. EAV’s cargo bikes are one of the largest on the market, with a cargo volume of 2,000 litres and a 150kg payload. They are built to efficiently navigate urban landscapes and enable customers to make more deliveries in a shorter amount of time via their ability to access cycle lanes and safely navigate pedestrianised spaces.

Adam Barmby, Founder and CEO, EAV, said: “Zoomo are perfectly placed to support the take up of EAVs in city centres across the world, and drive the positive difference that we’re pushing for. We are thrilled to have a like-minded partner on our mission to revolutionise the last mile, and to create cleaner, safer cities.

“This partnership maximises our complementary expertise – with Zoomo’s servicing, financing and software making the switch to light electric vehicles a simple step for our shared customers. Meanwhile, we will continue to ensure every single vehicle meets the highest specifications for build and rider-experience, as we innovate on solutions which further reduce the cost and the emissions impact of urban logistics.”
