It was great to see the result live on the streets of Paris. It all started with an idea – now it’s a reality and we look forward to adding the first pilot vehicles to the fleet in Europe at the beginning of 2023.
Since the beginning of the cooperation between DB Schenker and Volta Trucks, we have been in close contact and continued to drive the development of the vehicle forward together.”

It was fantastic to get our hands on a Volta Zero and put it through its paces, with our own drivers alongside Volta Truck’s engineers. We had the truck for five days and it is very impressive.
The Beta trials are an opportunity for us to test the vehicle first-hand, while helping Volta Trucks see exactly how it performs in real- life scenarios and on typical routes”.

The Volta Zero is clearly a very well thought out design that is not only providing an opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint of mid-range trucks but also improve safety in urban distribution.
With the improved visibility for the driver and easy access it looks and feels very different to the traditional truck design.
In challenging the traditional truck design, I think the Volta Zero will play a part in attracting people to become professional drivers and work in logistics and that the design will be a benefit in learning to drive a large goods vehicle.”

“The feedback from the drivers involved in the testing period was extremely positive and I’m sure we will see similar feedback as we roll the vehicles out across the business. The Crown Estate and GXO are committed to improving the environment for shoppers on the high street – the Volta Zero will play a significant part in reducing emissions.”
