Seems a sensible use for electric - last mile short range stuff with lots of stop/start, predictable max mileage, and return to base each night. Much better use case than linehaul or other long range stuff - I can’t see that being sensible without a lot of infrastructure investment. As long as they have chargers sorted at the bases it should work (barring people forgetting to plug the thing in which will happen but hopefully not too often).

The range on these is still a bit low for a full days work even in short range urban delivery (claims up to 200km, so maybe 150 you can rely on) so I wonder if they’re planning on spruiking for fast chargers at the bases - could fit in a morning and afternoon/evening run that way.
