Let’s take a look at our five key steps to success…
Step one. Discover your fleet’s true cost.
First, use whole life cost to calculate the cost of running your current fleet – this is your baseline. If you operate commercial vehicles, we’ll also factor in vehicle downtime and any Clean Air Zone charges that apply in the areas you operate.
Step two. Profile your usage.
To understand the exact make-up of your fleet, profile each driver based on location, daily mileage, vehicle size and specification, typical vehicle load and where the vehicle is stored when not in use. Use these profiles to create fleet segments.
Step three. Discover suitable vehicle options.
Match your segments to suitable available electric or low-emitting vehicles that fall within your baseline cost.
Step four. Define and communicate.
Produce a policy that tells drivers how to utilise their EV and what their responsibilities are. Share your policy and offer EV gurus to support your drivers with their decisions.
