Electrify your fleet
Why should you join electric mobility?
It’s simple: internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles account for a significant quantity of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. There’s an urgent need to reduce emissions to prevent the worst effects of climate change, and with 50% of vehicles on the roads today registered to corporate organisations, businesses have a key part to play.

But electrification is not only an opportunity to lower your business’s environmental footprint (and keep your customers, partners and investors happy). It’s also a way to improve cost efficiency thanks to a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO; see below) and to give employees a better and more high-tech driving experience.

An international perspective on electrification
The experts from LeasePlan’s International Consultancy Services have been helping international clients embrace EV for many years. Our consultants work with you from the first spark of an idea all the way through to vehicle delivery and beyond.
Our first step is to carry out a scan, where we map your fleet's possibilities to be in line with your company's sustainability targets. We also help you conduct a price comparison, to see what kind of financial benefits you could gain. But it doesn’t stop there: our team supports you in updating your fleet policy and planning how, together, we can put your EV transition into practice – all around the world.
Getting your drivers up to speed
Are your drivers wary of EVs or eager to step on the electric accelerator? Either way, fleet managers need to make sure employees are both motivated and trained to make the switch safely and efficiently. It’s also important that they can easily find answers to their questions – from the best EV driving behaviours and how to make sure they always have enough charge to whether they can use their EV to go on holiday.
Our experiences with our own fleet electrification programme and those of our many EV customers make LeasePlan the ideal partner for fleet managers. We can provide numerous tips and tricks to make the transition as smooth and positive as possible.
Should my company fleet go electric?
When it comes to the big decision, there are three major factors to consider:
- The route
Can your employees easily drive between home and work? Or do some people need to cover longer distances on their commute, or to reach clients?
- Charging options
Is home charging possible for your employees? Or will they rely on public charging stations or office charging points?
- The models
Do some of your employees need more from their vehicle when using it outside work (like a large boot or space for all the kids)?
And remember: a one-powertrain-fits-all approach is usually the wrong route to take. Consider a mix of hybrids, plug-in hybrids and battery electric vehicles – to account for the different situations and requirements of your employees.
Expertise on eLCVs
Commercial vehicle fleets made up of LCVs have different electrification requirements than passenger vehicle fleets – but at LeasePlan, we don’t believe the process needs to be more complicated. We always take care to understand the specific needs of your company, ensuring a smooth transition to eLCVs for your commercial fleet.
