Abstract Abstract: This study presents a significant contribution to the Electric Vehicle Routing Problem (EVRP) <br/>domain by addressing the challenges posed by fuzzy demands, soft time windows, and the need <br/>for recharging at demand points. The research aims to provide valuable insights into electric <br/>vehicle routing optimization, specifically focusing on the dynamic nature of fuzzy demand and the <br/>incorporation of soft time windows, while simultaneously assessing the economic and <br/>environmental implications. The problem is formulated as a mixed-integer linear programming <br/>model, accommodating uncertainties in demand levels and allowing for flexibility with penalties <br/>for time window violations. Utilizing LINGO V19 software, the model is solved using both <br/>Solomon Datasets and a case study dataset, yielding exact solutions. To gauge the impact of fuzzy <br/>demand, a Depth-First Lexicographic Parametric Analysis is conducted by varying the fuzzy <br/>demand parameters. The model's validity and effectiveness are rigorously examined using <br/>Solomon's benchmark dataset and subsequently applied to a case study derived from the Egyptian <br/>local market.<br/>The solutions obtained are evaluated based on various metrics, including total incurred costs, <br/>penalty costs, total distance traveled, and total CO2 emissions. The analysis of these solutions <br/>provides managerial implications, establishing a decision-making framework for electric vehicle <br/>fleet management. Recommendations are proposed for decision-makers encompassing fuzzy <br/>demand modeling techniques, charging infrastructure considerations, pricing and incentive <br/>strategies, and effective management systems.<br/>This study significantly advances EVRP research, offering practical solutions for real-world <br/>transportation planning and logistics management. The integration of fuzzy demand dynamics and <br/>soft time windows into the optimization model enhances its applicability to complex and uncertain <br/>real-world scenarios, contributing to the sustainable development of electric vehicle routing <br/>practices
