Also get 4.2 miles/KWh here. Maybe they will build in some kind of feedback for the trucks. The leaf has (had) the little trees that appear on the dashboard; maybe UPS can track this and issue a token incentive (free meal, bonus) at the end of the month if the delivery schedule is accomplished with less energy.

With "one pedal" driving, the feedback mechanism is having to touch the brake pedal or not.

Allotting a specific energy cost per mile and then paying the courier the surplus would solve that.
