Amazon is rolling out its biggest-ever electric truck fleet while also boosting operations with hundreds of new electric vans.

The online retail giant has deployed the first in a major order of eHGVs, which will bring its total electric truck fleet to 160 once fully deployed. The trucks, transporting products between Amazon logistics hubs across the UK, will travel the annual equivalent of more than 450 trips around the Earth on UK roads once fully operational, carrying more than 300 million products.

Amazon is also adding more than 800 new electric vans to its delivery fleet this winter. The Mercedes-Benz eSprinter vans have been kitted out with improved safety elements, ergonomic designs for drivers and practical delivery enhancements, including custom shelving and sliding bulkhead doors for more efficient package handling.

In London, Amazon is also expanding its on-foot delivery routes across the capital – Camden becomes the fourth borough to receive the service, building on successful pilots in Hackney, Westminster and Islington. The service uses strategically parked vans as mobile distribution points. Teams of delivery associates collect packages from these hubs, to deliver on foot through nearby neighbourhoods, and have already helped to deliver more than one million packages to customers’ doors in 2025, cutting carbon emissions and traffic congestion.

The new service supports Camden Council’s commitments in the Freight and Servicing Action Plan to reduce van emissions from deliveries and servicing trips.

Councillor Adam Harrison, cabinet member for planning and a sustainable Camden, commented: “We hope that this trial will help reduce van miles and improve local air quality. We will monitor the impacts closely and use the findings to shape future freight policy.”

Nicola Fyfe, EU VP of Amazon Logistics, said the latest developments were a major milestone in the company’s work to decarbonise its UK transportation network.

“These trucks, alongside more electric vans and on-foot deliveries, are a win for our customers, the environment and our business,” she remarked. “The challenge to scaling this approach across the logistics industry, however, is charging infrastructure. We’ve invested in our own facilities but need continued industry and government collaboration to develop the national network required for widespread electric vehicle adoption.”
