Pony Express began delivering goods using electric vehicles

Electric vehicles not only reduce environmental damage caused by exhaust gases, but also have a positive effect on business processes: these vehicles require lower maintenance costs, provide the opportunity to use free parking and are exempt from transport tax in several regions, Pony said express.

The company added that it plans to begin using electric vehicles in other major Russian cities in the near future, but plans are complicated by “limited charging infrastructure and technical limitations on long-distance routes where larger batteries are required.”
