In my anecdotal experience I've found it to be not uncommon in work trucks used for commercial duty over 200k miles. Not sure about in the delivery van space.

It's a different level of wear and tear than a normal commuter passenger vehicle.
I think the bigger savings on a delivery van would be brakes. In constant stop-start driving using the motor for regenerative braking is both an efficiency saver and reduces wear and tear on the mechanical brakes.
- fragmede 3y ago"efficiency saver" kinda downplays the fact that the energy is being recovered which was previously just wasted. Not throwing all that energy away is material at Amazon scale.
