Workhorse Group, an electric vehicle company on the Postal Service's shortlist to manufacture its next-generation delivery vehicle fleet, is ending its legal battle against USPS and contract award recipient Oshkosh Defense.
The House Oversight and Reform Committee on Thursday approved $12 billion for federal electric vehicles as part of the $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package proposed by Democrats.
Workhorse alleged the USPS vehicle award recipient submitted a prototype vehicle “entirely different” than the one selected for production, and that the winning design “skipped the prototype phase altogether.”
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy says the Postal Service is still in the early stages of figuring out the percentage of electric vehicles it will buy in the first round of its next-generation delivery vehicle contract with Oshkosh Defense.
The bill requires USPS to guarantee that at least 75% of its new fleet will be electric or zero-emission delivery trucks.
