This chapter presents the results of the first half‐year of the LEVV‐LOGIC project, which is aimed at exploring the potential of light electric freight vehicles (LEFVs) for various urban freight flows. It begins with a definition of LEFV followed by an overview of the research that has been carried out in the field of LEFV. The chapter explains the methodology used in this research. Based on the methodology, it describes the selection of the urban freight flows and discusses future trends and potential of using LEFV for various urban freight flows. The chapter analyzes the expert opinion on the use of LEFV using the multi‐actor multi‐criteria analysis (MAMCA) method followed by a discussion of the results. It provides examples of current users of LEFVs in the Netherlands. Finally, the chapter ends with conclusions about the results showing directions for further research.
