Since the mid‑2000s, electric vehicles have gained popularity in several countries, yet their market share remains low; most progress has been in passenger vehicles, while electric vehicle technology for goods distribution has received less attention, raising a range of research problems. The survey paper aims to provide transportation researchers with an overview of the technological and marketing background needed to conduct research in electric vehicle goods distribution, present a survey of existing research, and offer future research perspectives. It achieves this by surveying the current literature and outlining future research directions.
Since the mid-2000s, electric vehicles have gained popularity in several countries even though their market share is still relatively low. However, most gains have been made in the area of passenger vehicles and most technical and scientific studies have been devoted to this case. By contrast, the potential of electric vehicular technology for goods distribution has received less attention. The issues related to the use of electric vehicles for goods distribution reveal a wide range of relevant research problems. The aims of this survey paper are to provide transportation researchers an overview of the technological and marketing background needed to conduct research in this area, to present a survey of the existing research in this field, and to offer perspectives for future research.
