Amazon is investing huge amounts of money. First the wage increase for employees, 100,000 electric vehicles in the U.S. and now also in Europe. Amazon already has thousands of electric vehicles in Europe and now there are to be even more.
At least 10,000 new delivery vehicles are to be ordered and over 1,500 new trucks are to be added. The whole thing will cost about a billion euros over the next five years. This will allow Amazon to become CO2 neutral by 2040 - 10 years ahead of the Paris Agreement, as Amazon wrote.
With this investment also the production of the trucks and delivery vans is to be promoted. Amazon is setting a starting point. So the production is promoted and in the course of the time the electric vehicles should become more favorable, so Amazon.
