Electric Vehicle usage represents environmental and economic benefits. Here a variant of e-VRP is studied. We allow visiting a customer by walking while the vehicle is charged. A hybrid-ILS is tested on literature instances: the total recharging time is reduced up to 2.5% and the total distance up to 2.8%.
