Move to enhance sustainable last-mile delivery operations
EMX, the logistics arm of 7X, successfully launched its first fleet of e-bikes, further enhancing efficiency and sustainability of its delivery services across the UAE. The recent launch aligns with EMX’s strategic vision to optimise last-mile delivery and logistics operations, while reducing overall environmental impact, according to a press release.
This marks a pivotal step in EMX’s transition to a fully electric fleet, while advancing the organisation’s sustainability goals. By reducing EMX’s carbon footprint, the initiative supports the UAE’s commitment to green logistics and smart urban mobility.
Equipped with best-in-class technology, EMX e-bikes will boost energy efficiency by 16 per cent and offer a range of up to 135km, running on a double battery apparatus. They also feature advanced safety measures such as Combined Braking System (CBS) and hydraulic suspension to ensure driver safety even on challenging terrains. Additionally, battery charging infrastructure has already been installed at EMX hubs across the UAE.
“The launch of EMX’s e-bikes fleet represents a remarkable step forward in line with the UAE’s vision to achieve sustainability, smart mobility, and technological innovation in the logistics sector. EMX remains steadfast in its efforts to reduce carbon emissions and strengthen the nation’s green logistics capabilities,” remarked Tariq Al Wahedi, General Manager, EMX.
EMX plans to expand its electric vehicle lineup with new additions like electric vans to support a greener, more efficient logistics ecosystem, the press note concluded.
