To reduce exhaust fumes and noise problems occurring in delivery work, the government is pushing a project to switch delivery motorcycles to electric motorcycles.
The Ministry of Climate, Energy and Environment said on the 5th that it signed a business agreement to promote the supply of electric two-wheelers with delivery platforms such as Woowa Brothers, Coupang Eats and Yogiyo; delivery agencies such as Barogo, VROONG and Saenggakdaero; electric two-wheeler manufacturers such as Daedong Mobility Co., KR Motors and D&A Motors; electric two-wheeler rental companies such as A Rental & Service and MOVVING; the Delivery Service Mutual Aid Association; LG Energy Solution; and the Korea Automobile Environmental Association.
The government set a goal of raising the share of electric two-wheelers among newly introduced delivery motorcycles each year to at least 25% by 2030 and at least 60% by 2035. Previously, among the 104,848 two-wheelers registered nationwide last year, 10,137 were electric, for a share of 9.7%.
