Einride Partners with Amazon to Deploy 75 Electric Trucks Across Five US Sites
Swedish firm Einride is deploying 75 manually operated electric heavy-duty trucks and charging infrastructure across five U.S. locations to haul Amazon freight, powered by its Saga AI for route and charging optimization. The partnership, announced April 21, 2026, advances Amazon's logistics decarbonization via third-party operators amid U.S. electric trucking setbacks and slower Rivian van rollouts. Einride, after raising $113 million in February, eyes a H1 2026 SPAC merger with Legato Merger Corp III. The modest-scale deal provides supportive but limited near-term lift for Amazon shares.
