Description
This episode shifts the focus on fleet electrification to the last mile. Tyler Cole sits with Jimmy Eberhard, CEO of Fluid Truck, to discuss how Fluid is helping companies like IKEA delight customers while achieving ambitious fleet electrification targets. By simplifying the fleet management process, Fluid facilitates contract fleets in non-CDL operations transition their last mile deliveries to EVs. Their short-term rentals provides a flexible way for companies to explore and overcome the challenges of electrification, from charging infrastructure availability to driver training. Fluid Truck is a on-demand truck sharing platform that offers 24/7 mobile access to a wide array of commercial vehicles, including EVs. Unlike most traditional rental companies, Fluid Truck offers an entirely virtual rental experience, eliminating time wasted standing in line at traditional rental agencies. Fluid Truck helps businesses move by automating the management of fleets from their pocket and removing the hassles of ownership.
