Enterprise Flex-E-Rent has added 50 Mercedes eSprinter vans and 50 Mercedes eVito Panel vans to its locations in the South of England and the Midlands. Each van has a range up to 90 miles.
It is providing the compact cars in a partnership agreement with Hiyacar, a peer-to-peer carsharing business that it has already worked with in London.
Average CO2 figures for new leased cars showed a sharp fall in Q3 2019 on the back of a surge in battery electric vehicle registrations, according to the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association.
The eVito, with 519-599 lbs. of cargo volume, offers a 92-mile average range. The eSprinter panel van is due later in 2020.
The service uses the all-electric Jaguar I-PACE. Fleetonomy will provide the end-to-end platform, which includes fleet management technology, dispatch system, demand prediction modules, and AI-based optimization engines.
For ViaVan, the electrification of its fleet in Milton Keynes represents an important step in ViaVan’s vision to evolve public transport across the U.K. with smart, sustainable, and congestion-reducing shared rides.
