South Korea's postal service is planning to replace most of its motorbike fleet with electric vehicles over the next couple of years.
According to Korea Post,... out of the service's 15-thousand motorbikes, two-thirds will be replaced with electric cars by the end of 2020.
Korea Post first trial-ran the electric vehicles in March.
The delivery men and women were generally satisfied because they could stay out of the extreme hot or cold weather while delivering their letters and parcels.
They could also load more mail in the car.
The electric vehicles cost more than motorbikes,... but cost a lot less to maintain.
