Chevrolet has announced that it will provide BrightDrop 400 electric vans to support Walmart’s InHome delivery service.
The multinational retailer hopes that the addition of BrightDrop 400 vans to the Walmart last-mile fleet will support growth of its InHome delivery service.
The vans will also help Walmart reduce its carbon emissions and provide drivers with safe, efficient, and comfortable vehicles.
BrightDrop 400 electric vans, produced at the CAMI Assembly plant, are equipped with advanced safety features to help ensure driver alertness and safety, low step-in height to ease driver ingress and egress and large infotainment screens for a tech-enabled driving experience.
Walmart, which announced the expansion of its InHome delivery program to 62 million households nationwide, will roll out the BrightDrop 400 vans in Austin, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, northwest Arkansas, Orlando, and the San Francisco Bay area by the end of the year.
Vice president, Walmart U.S. dedicated delivery Warren Moore said: “With a focus on being people-led and tech-powered, we’re always looking for ways to enhance the associate experience and provide the best possible service to our customers.
“That’s why we’re so excited about the addition of the BrightDrop 400 to our InHome delivery fleet.
“During the pilot, we listened closely to our InHome associates’ feedback and were impressed by the vans’ performance in real-world scenarios.”
