Correos invests 6.4m Euros in fleet vehicles

Correos is investing 6.4m Euros in its postal delivery fleet by buying French vehicles.

Correos said that 3.57m Euros will go towards the purchase of 325 Renault Kangoo models, replacing around 20pct of its current light delivery vehicles. In addition a further 160 Citroen Jumpy vehicles are also being purchased. The new vehicles have smaller fuel consumption and produce fewer emissions.

The Citroen Jumpy will be introduced in two versions to suit the needs of transporting personnel and mail delivery.

Correos currently has around 13,500 vehicles and the replacements will form part of a long-term plan to upgrade the entire fleet. The new models will improve reliability and reduce maintenance costs as well as increasing lifting capacity by more than 90,000 kilos. The move has been promoted by a need to optimise and reinforce the quality and accessibility of the Spanish postal service.
