The global electric last mile delivery vehicle market size was valued at USD 29.17 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 139.41 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 19.4% from 2025 to 2033. Rising e-commerce demand and stringent urban emission regulations are accelerating the adoption of electric last mile delivery vehicles.
The explosive growth of e-commerce, especially post-pandemic, has intensified the demand for efficient, timely, and cost-effective last-mile delivery solutions. As online shopping becomes the norm across urban and suburban areas, retailers and logistics providers are under pressure to fulfill growing delivery volumes. Electric last mile delivery vehicles offer a compelling solution with lower operating costs, easier maneuverability in congested urban settings, and increasing compatibility with smart logistics networks. This has pushed major e-commerce companies and 3PL providers to invest in electrifying their delivery fleets.
Stringent government regulations and low-emission zone (LEZ) mandates are playing a critical role in driving the adoption of electric vehicles for last mile delivery. Cities across Europe, North America, and parts of Asia are enacting policies to phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles from central urban areas, thereby creating a favorable environment for electric last mile delivery vehicles. Subsidies, tax exemptions, and vehicle scrappage incentives are further accelerating this shift by lowering the total cost of ownership for fleet operators transitioning to electric.
Recent improvements in battery technology, especially in terms of energy density, charging speed, and lifecycle, have made electric vehicles more viable for daily commercial use. Electric vans, mini trucks, and cargo bikes used for last-mile deliveries can now cover longer routes, carry heavier payloads, and recharge faster, making them suitable for multiple delivery cycles in a single day. Additionally, the declining cost of lithium-ion batteries is helping reduce the upfront purchase price of electric delivery vehicles, making them more accessible to small and mid-sized logistics firms.
Many large corporations and logistics providers are aligning their operations with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals, pushing for carbon neutrality in their supply chains. This has resulted in aggressive fleet electrification commitments from companies such as Amazon, FedEx, DHL, and UPS. These companies view electric last mile delivery vehicles as a key component of their broader sustainability strategy. Fleet-level deployments not only reduce emissions but also enhance brand image and customer loyalty, further motivating adoption.
