[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 2532912, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.fastcoexist.com/3066529/ups-is-now-delivering-some-packages-by-electric-tricycle'][B]UPS Is Now Delivering Some Packages By Electric Tricycle - Fast Company[/B][/URL] A new UPS delivery trike in Portland, Oregon, pedaled by a driver with help from an electric motor, can only hold a tenth of the packages as a standard-size truck. But because the tiny trike doesn't get stuck in traffic, it (alongside a standard fleet of trucks) can help the company become more efficient in a crowded urban neighborhood. "With a full-size delivery vehicle, you can't get it into places that you would with an e-bike," says Scott Phillippi, an automotive engineer at UPS. "It's part of an overall strategy to make an impact on the environment as well as become more efficient in doing so." [/QUOTE]
