Nice EVs spotted

In Edinburgh at the weekend, we spotted a shiny new TNT delivery truck, a Smiths Electric model. It pulled up silently beside us on the street while the driver checked an address, and then moved a little further down the street - you could just hear the contactor as it started and a faint whine from the reduction gear. On the side below the box you could see the Zebra battery cases with warning stickers on them. Anyway, a picture is worth more:


Nice truck!

Ideal for city deliveries. It presumably has no problems with the steep hills in Edinburgh.
