The Dutch city is inviting businesses to test this sustainable mode of transportation for one month, so they can explore zero-emission transport alternatives in advance of new delivery traffic regulations that will come into effect next year. LEVA-EU member Dockr’s cargo e-bikes are among the selected vehicles that are available for free trials as part of this scheme.

From 1 January 2026, conventional trucks and vans will face restrictions in Utrecht’s city centre, which has prompted the municipality to encourage businesses to trial zero-emission transport alternatives.

From now until 1 March 2026, companies are able to try out LEVs free of charge for one month. The initiative is open not only to businesses located in the city centre, but also to those that regularly deliver goods there.

The trial includes three light electric vehicle types, including Dockr e-cargo bikes, to give businesses first-hand experience of cleaner, more manoeuvrable transportation alternatives to delivery vans.

Dockr is offering its Urban Arrow L & XL , designed for urban logistics transportation, for testing. They offer volumes of 400L (L) and 570L (XL) and are equipped to carry a maximum load capacity of 250 kg.

Businesses interested in participating can register or request further information through the city’s logistics brokers at logistiekmakelaar@utrecht.nl.
