The United States Postal Service (USPS) released a strategy to switch to an all-electric fleet Tuesday, including a commitment to purchase only electric vehicles starting in 2026.
Under the strategy, USPS is expected to purchase 106,000 vehicles, including 60,000 electric vehicles (EVs), by 2028. By then, the agency anticipates it will be operating 66,000 EVs in total: 45,000 of the Next Generation Delivery Vehicle (NGDV) model and 21,000 generic EVs.
The electrification of the USPS fleet is expected to cost 9.6 billion USD; the Inflation Reduction Act will provide 3 billion USD for this purpose.
