Goupil electric utility vehicles are perfect for transport and maintenance operations in airports.

The benefits of electric technology for the airport environment
The aviation sector requires efficient means of transportation capable of swiftly and safely operating throughout the entire airport.
The electric nature of Goupil vehicles allows them to travel both inside and outside buildings. They can be used from within a terminal for passenger transport or baggage delivery right up to the aircraft.
The 100% electric small utility vehicle offers an ideal mobility solution for various applications within an airport:
Eco-friendly
The climate-related challenges require the aviation sector to drastically reduce their CO2 emissions. By adopting electric vehicles for delivery, transportation, and security operations, aviation industry stakeholders demonstrate their commitment to a more sustainable future on a daily basis.
Quiet
Airports are often very noisy environments. Opting for an electric van contributes to noise reduction and provides a more pleasant environment for travellers and airport staff (baggage handlers, mechanics, various agents, airline pilots, etc.).
Versatile
The electric van can move both indoors and outdoors, making it the ideal utility vehicle for airport sites. Using one vehicle for various applications allows agents to operate faster and more efficiently.
Cost-efficient
The comparison between a thermal and electric vehicle is clear: the operating cost of a zero-emission truck is significantly reduced compared to a combustion engine van. This observation is largely due to the vehicle's architecture, which has fewer moving parts, thereby limiting maintenance costs.
The positive image associated with the use of electric vehicles also extends to rental agencies present in airports. These agencies are expanding their offer of low or zero-emission vehicles
The electrification of transportation means is essential for the future of our planet. With over 25 years of experience, Goupil has built a solid reputation by delivering products that meet the requirements of our clients, regardless of their business activities: industries, airports, local authorities, or tourism players.
