BREA, Calif., July 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN – Mullen Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN) (“Mullen” or the “Company”), an electric vehicle (“EV”) manufacturer, today announces that DB Schenker, one of the world’s leading transportation and logistics companies, has purchased four Mullen CAMPUS electric vehicles for use on Intel’s technology campus in Chandler, Arizona, for mail and package delivery. Randy Marion Automotive, one of Mullen’s commercial vehicle dealers, is in receipt of payment and has delivered the vehicles to DB Schenker.

Founded in 1872, DB Schenker is a global leader with over 72,700 employees across 1,850 locations worldwide working to shape transport and the exchange of goods through new, innovative, and sustainable ways for businesses and their supply chain management. Their integrated approach ensures that every step of the supply chain is optimized for success, from land transport to air and ocean freight, contract logistics and supply chain management. With the goal to be carbon neutral by 2040, DB Schenker continuously invests in innovative low-carbon land, air and ocean freight solutions, while improving resource efficiency in their warehouses. Together with its partners, DB Schenker is exploring the technologies which will enable the clean logistics of the future.

The Mullen CAMPUS, a highly efficient electric van designed for low-speed, closed-campus use, will play a key role in DB Schenker’s efforts to reduce its environmental footprint while maintaining efficient operations. The fully battery-operated vehicle (“BEV”) will be used for closed-campus transportation, providing class-leading cargo capacity and overall operator comfort. The CAMPUS delivery van has all the same DNA as the Mullen ONE but was purpose-built to support logistics in micro-environments.

“DB Schenker is committed to sustainability and innovation, aligning perfectly with Mullen's mission to accelerate the adoption of commercial electric vehicles,” said David Michery, CEO and chairman of Mullen Automotive. “We are confident that our CAMPUS EVs will provide DB Schenker with a clean, efficient and reliable transportation solution.”
