Lufthansa Cargo opts for electric company car fleet
First e-vehicles in use since February 2025
Lufthansa Cargo will be using electric cars in its fleet of company cars in the future. The total of 30 vehicles used for business trips at the Frankfurt hub are to be gradually replaced with new electric vehicles. After almost 1000 test kilometers driven by 71 test drivers, the team has decided on two vehicle types. The first three new vehicles have already arrived and have been in use since the beginning of February 2025. At the same time, the complete charging infrastructure at the Lufthansa Cargo Center was implemented with a total of six charging points in two buildings.
The air cargo company is pursuing a clear sustainability strategy and, together with the Lufthansa Group, has set itself ambitious climate protection targets. Through reduction and compensation measures, the company aims to achieve a neutral CO2 balance by 2050. By 2030, net CO2 emissions are to be halved compared to 2019.
