When we think of the term “electric vehicles,” we generally conjure up mental images of Teslas or other headline-grabbing electric cars.

The study was conducted by Deloitte last month in Germany, where…

E-commerce giant Amazon has found a simple solution to replace thousands of its van deliveries: smaller electric cargo bikes and good old-fashioned walking.
