Mars and Rewe jointly deployed 47 battery-electric trucks on a pilot logistics corridor across Europe, marking a major step in sustainable transport. The initiative combines 23 trucks from Mars and 24 from Rewe, aiming to cut emissions and diesel use significantly.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: July 9, 2026 Mars and Rewe Launch 47 Electric Trucks on European Logistics Route Mars and Rewe officially deployed 47 battery-electric trucks on a pilot logistics corridor across Europe on July 9, 2026, uniting food and grocery sectors in a bold move toward sustainable transport. The joint fleet includes 23 trucks operated by Mars and 24 by Rewe, covering the full logistics path from Mars’ production facilities through storage hubs to Rewe’s retail locations across EU nations[2][5]. Since implementing electric trucks on their individual routes, the partners have logged over 2.4 million kilometers driven electrically, conserving approximately 750,000 liters of diesel and preventing 2,600 tonnes of CO₂ emissions calculated on a well-to-wheel basis[2]. This pilot corridor represents the first phase of Mars’ broader strategy to deploy 300 electric trucks throughout Europe by 2030, aiming to reduce annual CO₂ emissions in its European logistics by roughly ten percent[1][4]. Anthony James Peacock, Founder of Trade Compliance Records, emphasized the regulatory and environmental significance of the initiative: "This launch sets a new benchmark for compliance-driven sustainability in European logistics. By adopting electric fleets, Mars and Rewe are not only meeting emerging EU transport regulations but also demonstrating how industry leaders can lead the transition to low-emission supply chains." The project underscores the growing integration of electric vehicles into commercial transport networks, particularly in the UK and broader EU markets, as part of Mars’ European electrification journey[2][6]. With this milestone, Mars and Rewe are paving the way for scalable, green logistics solutions that align with global climate goals.
