Upgrading your fleet to Electric Vehicles
If you are operating a fleet of vehicles however big or small now is the time to look very closely at switching to pure EV’s or plug-in hybrids.
Fleet Charging
35% of fleet orders this year have been for plug-in vehicles
That’s a whopping 1 in 3 orders for vehicles that you can plug in. You may be surprised by the number of models available in the UK today (July 2020 Hybrid and BEV) 130 to choose from. More E-vans are arriving and the use case for these in fleets doing last mile and multi drop offs is proving extremely viable in urban areas already.
In April 2020 the tax changes made it very beneficial for companies to make this change. With 0% BIK , salary sacrifice schemes, lower running costs, control over your fuel costs and government grants to help cover the cost of workplace charging.
A number of manufacturers are releasing models in 2021 and we strongly advise you look at your requirements now as demand is high and we are advised that ordering early is essential. Next Green Car and EV Database are good sites to view the available models.
