Flexis, the electric van joint venture backed by Renault, Volvo Trucks and French logistics firm CMA CGM, has revealed its new logo.
An angled ‘F’ resembling a building plan, the company said the new symbol represents its commitment to “city-positive logistics”.
It features prominently on the start-up’s three vans, replacing the wordmark that was previously fitted on their front fascias.
Flexis added it will announce names and new features for the vans later this year.
The vans are part of a €350 million model-range development plan and are based on a shared platform.
Flexis said the skateboard-style platform had been designed to minimise the height of the loading floor, maximise interior layout flexibility and allow for long driving ranges.
The flagship of the range is the Step-in Van, a rebadged version of the new Renault Estafette.
It has a traditional, short-wheelbase van bodystyle with sliding doors at the front and a shutter door at the rear, claimed by the firm as the first of its kind on sale in Europe.
As detailed by Renault last year, the Step-in Van will utilise a footprint the size of the Renault Kangoo but with the taller roofline of the Renault Trafic from the segment above.
A second model, the Panel Van, is claimed to be more versatile in urban environments, offering a 1.9m height while retaining the ability to enter underground car parks and garages.
The range is capped off by the Cargo Van, designed to bolster last-mile deliveries and offering various bodystyles, widths and load beds.
