If you are considering changing your fleet to electric but are unsure whether it’s right for your business, then using flexi-hire and specifying an electric vehicle (EV) is a risk-free way for your drivers to experience electric driving and for your business to assess whether EVs meet your operational requirements.
Starting with a few drivers who are keen to electrify, taking feedback, and then expanding the electrification programme based on that feedback and – hopefully – the good news stories from those drivers who have transitioned to EV is regarded as best fleet best practice.
Why use flexi-hire for EVs?
Flexi-hire is a great option if you are looking to try a vehicle before committing to a full lease – particularly when that vehicle is an electric car. It is also ideal if you need a car or van for a specific project or an employee for a short period of time.
Mike Manners, Managing Director, CBVC Vehicle Management, said:
We have been offering flexi-hire for many years now and understand that the flexibility to have a vehicle for just three months at a time is really useful – particularly when you are trying to introduce EVs step by step to your fleet. It’s a perfect ‘try before you buy’ option.
Great vehicle choice & availability
CBVC Vehicle Management offers a wide range of electric vehicles on flexi-hire with excellent availability. These include the
- MG4 SE EV long range 64kWh,
- Peugeot e-2008 50kWh and
- Polestar 2 78kw long range single motor.
Complete flexibility – extend, return or exchange
After the initial three-month hire period, CBVC Vehicle Management offers flexible options to suit you. You can choose to extend the vehicle rental, return it or change it – depending on your needs. For example, it offers the opportunity to try different EV, perhaps with a longer range that is more suitable for your drivers.
