Europcar Mobility Group renews CBVC electric vehicle deal
Europcar Mobility Group UK has renewed its contract for the supply and management of its company cars with CBVC Vehicle Management for a further three years.
The partnership is intended to help the company reduce its carbon footprint. By introducing electric vehicles to its fleet it has already seen average C02 emissions per company car come down from 129 g/km to just 29 g/km.
Mark Newberry, Europcar Mobility Group commercial director and sustainability spokesperson, said: “We are working with a wide diversity of businesses that are getting to grips with reducing emissions on their own fleets.
“It is, therefore, essential that we can show we understand the barriers they may face when aiming to win the hearts and minds of their drivers. By working with CBVC we have been able to deliver a streamlined solution that makes it easy for employees to make the switch.”

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.
CBVC has also used whole life costs to generate multi-brand vehicle lists, with its expertise helping employees to go electric. Its multi-bid acquisition and enhanced levels of service are also delivering lower costs for the Europcar business.
CBVC account manager Julie Hayes said:
“It has been a pleasure working with Europcar. Our innovative automated selection process rewards drivers for picking lower C02 cars. And with recent increases in prices, we have demonstrated the value of a multi-bid approach to funding.”
