Maltapost plc has deployed its first eco-friendly electronic vehicle, the company said on Monday.

Electrically powered, silent and emission-free, the vehicle is able to hold voluminous and bulky mail enabling the company to deliver items to clients in the best condition.

Low carbon transport and energy efficiency are to become important considerations for the postal group as it assesses processes and projects in the coming years.

Lorraine Pace was officially recognised by the company as the first postal operator to use this vehicle on her daily rounds.
