Automotive World Magazine – February 2022

Electric delivery is hot, particularly within last-mile applications, and numerous factors are steering the segment towards a zero-emission future. Today, just a handful of companies are producing the sort of battery electric vehicles that delivery companies need. This month, we sit down with clean mobility entrepreneur Stefan Krause to talk through his recent acquisition of StreetScooter from DPDHL. StreetScooter is already the largest producer of eLCVs in Germany, but if Krause realises his ambitions that will prove just the tip of the iceberg.
