Europcar Mobility Group cuts company car emissions by 85%

News

Europcar Mobility Group has successfully reduced the emissions from its own company cars, as part of its ‘One Sustainable Fleet’ decarbonisation strategy.

Working with fleet management company, CBVC Vehicle Management, CO2 emissions on new vehicles delivered to Europcar employees has been reduced by 85% since the start of the partnership in 2021 compared with the legacy fleet .  

As Ron Santiago, Managing Director, Europcar Mobility Group UK explains, this is a fundamental element of the company’s sustainability commitment: “We know that we must ‘walk the talk’ when it comes to reducing carbon emissions and that has to start with our own company car fleet. It’s great to see our colleagues enthusiastically embracing zero emissions with almost all of those who opt for a company vehicle now driving electric.

“By making the process straight-forward for Europcar employees to understand their company car options, CBVC is helping them and us make the switch more easily.”

As part of the emission reduction scheme, CBVC Vehicle Management created the Driver Vehicle Selection Portal. This makes it easy for company car drivers to select an EV, using market-leading technology, video reviews and vehicle trade-up options. Plus cash allowance drivers who want to capitalise on ultra-low BIK EVs have been able to opt back into the company car scheme.
