Amazon announced a deal with Rivian, including an investment in the EV startup, under then-CEO Jeff Bezos back in 2019 to add a total of 100,000 electric delivery vehicles by 2030. In early 2025, Amazon Europe announced its largest-ever order of EV big rigs from Mercedes, 200 trucks. In 2024, Amazon deployed its then-largest heavy-duty EV fleet for the U.S. freight market tied to Southern California ports, 50 trucks from Volvo.
Amazon has been expanding its freight business for years to create an end-to-end logistics network, and at the same time, to electrify it.
