Salary sacrifice for electric vehicles; driving growth in the fleet sector

Gofor on the road
Events season is in full swing with Gofor head of sales Paul Gordon and business development manager Dylan Benning Ardila attending the Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham, with account manager Paul Reeves checking in to The Great British Fleet Event in Milton Keynes.
Reflecting on his day at the Commercial Vehicle Show, Paul commented:
My key takeaway from the event was the importance of getting "bums in seats" (pardon the industry slang). Fleet decision-makers and drivers need to experience the benefits of electric vehicles firsthand to really drive van transition forward. Not only do EVs reduce driver stress, but they also make motoring more simple.

The data driving electric vehicle adoption
Our head of marketing and salary sacrifice for electric vehicles, Gordon Ross, shared the latest Geotab electric vehicle report, which states that two-thirds of the cars and vans operated by both public and private sector fleets in the UK could be switched to an electric vehicle.
It's always about the data and helping break through customers pre-conceived ideas of their EV adoption barriers, an excellent article and piece of research from GEOTAB
Geotab’s ‘Taking Charge: On the Road to an EV Future’ report is well worth a read.
