Oshkosh NGDV
2020s replacement for the US Postal Service's local delivery fleet / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oshkosh Next Generation Delivery Vehicle (NGDV) will be a mail truck for the United States Postal Service (USPS). The contract award, made to Oshkosh Defense, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oshkosh Corporation, in February 2021, is valued at $6 billion. Up to 160,000 vehicles will be built in a new facility.[3][4] Four variants of the NGDV are expected to be in fleet use: both gasoline-powered and battery-electric, driving either the front wheels or all four wheels.[5] The USPS will begin to receive the vehicles in June 2024.[6]
