☆ Ford taps masses of vehicle data to stay ahead in commercial van market
  + stars: | 2023-03-06 | by ( Nick Carey | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +5 min
Ford, which leads the commercial vehicle market in both Europe and the United States, launched the system in 2021. Hans Schep, European head of Ford Pro, the company's commercial vehicle business, said it is already close to hitting long-term targets of increasing vehicle "up time" by up to 60%. Ford recently announced engineering job cuts in Europe, but is still hiring software experts for its data services. Data is a huge battleground for commercial vehicle makers and competition will only intensify with electric models, which are essentially computers on wheels. Starting with 2024 models, GM will provide a range of OnStar data services free for fleet vehicles.
☆ Biden tax credits aim to jolt electric delivery truck demand
  + stars: | 2022-12-29 | by ( Lisa Baertlein | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
The first-of-its-kind incentives, established under President Joe Biden's Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), will offer tax credits of $7,500 or $40,000 depending on the size of the electric vehicle (EV). The IRA's commercial EV credits do not have "made in the USA" rules that apply to passenger cars. That will "help level the playing field for electric vehicles," said Ben King, associate director at Rhodium Group, a research firm. Jim Farley, chief executive at electric van market leader Ford Motor Co (F.N), this year predicted that IRA tax credits would have a "dramatic impact on the adoption of EVs." More commercial EV purchases should lower manufacturing costs and vehicle sticker prices - which should attract even more buyers, experts said.
☆ Ford and GM are going head-to-head for the fastest-growing electric vehicle market: delivery vans
  + stars: | 2022-12-06 | by ( Alexa St. John | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
Ford has pursued the commercial EV space through Ford Pro, while GM has tackled it with BrightDrop. This week's news mirrors the past several years of the two automakers one-upping each other with major EV investments. The commercial EV space has long been hindered by cost, a lack of viable products, and infrastructure questions. Monday, it announced it would produce its delivery vans at its factory in Canada and named DHL Express Canada as its first international customer. Ford Pro, the automaker's electric last-mile delivery unit, meanwhile, announced an order for 2,000 E-Transit vans from DHL this week.
☆ GM's BrightDrop signs first customer in Canada, unveils country's first large EV factory

REUTERS/Carlos OsorioDec 5 (Reuters) - The first electric delivery trucks rolled off production lines at BrightDrop's new factory in Canada on Monday, when the upstart unit of General Motors Co (GM.N) also announced DHL Express Canada (DPWGn.DE) as its first customer outside the United States. GM spent seven months and more than $2 billion transforming its 2 million-square-foot CAMI Assembly plant in Ingersoll, Ontario, into Canada's first large-scale electric vehicle (EV) factory for BrightDrop Zevo delivery trucks. It already has delivered 150 electric trucks to package carrier FedEx Corp (FDX.N). Those companies and many others have set goals to replace gas-burning delivery trucks and service vehicles with zero-emissions alternatives over time. DHL Express Canada's new relationship with BrightDrop "will help bring us closer to that target," CEO Andrew Williams said.
