AMAZON IS FORECASTING THE FUTURE. AMAZON DELIVERS THOUSANDS OF PACKAGES AROUND KANSAS CITY EVERY DAY, AND THE COMPANY IS TAKING STEPS TO GO GREENER AS THEIR DRIVERS HIT THE ROAD BY 2030 OR REDUCE OUR TRANSPORTATION CARBON EMISSIONS BY 50%. WE PLAN TO GET THERE USING DELIVERY TRUCKS THAT RUN ON ELECTRICITY INSTEAD OF GAS. EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON, THERE’S NOTHING EMITTING FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE’S NO EXHAUST, NO EMISSIONS. IT’S ALL BATTERY POWERED. A FULL CHARGE IS GOOD FOR AT LEAST 150 MILES ON THE ROAD. AND THERE’S MORE SPACE FOR MORE PACKAGES. BACK HERE, A 700 CUBIC SQUARE FOOT. SO BACK HERE IN THE BACK OF ONE OF THESE RIVIAN SEVEN HUNDREDS, WE COULD FIT ABOUT 24 STANDARD SIZE REFRIGERATORS. THAT EXTRA SPACE MEANS FEWER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD AND LESS FUEL EMISSIONS IN THE AIR. A GOOD MOVE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, ESPECIALLY AS WE NEAR THE HOLIDAY SEASON. WE ARE GOING TO HAVE DAYS WHERE WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, 400 PACKAGES PLUS ON THESE VANS BEING DELIVERED ALONG WITH THE ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFIT OVER A GAS POWERED VEHICLE. THESE RIVIAN VANS ARE ALSO SAFER FOR THE DRIVERS WITH 362 CAMERA DEGREES. YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHAT’S ALL AROUND YOU. WITH THAT, I CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHAT’S BEHIND ME, WHAT IS NEXT TO ME, AND WHAT’S IN FRONT OF ME. BY THE END OF THE YEAR, THEY HOPE TO HAVE THOUSANDS OF THESE VANS NATIONWIDE AND A FLEET OF 100,000
