Deciding which fleet vehicles can be replaced with electric vehicles (EVs) requires careful consideration.
Follow these steps to help determine which of your fleet vehicles are suitable for electrification and ensure a smooth transition:
Evaluate daily mileage, routes, and charging opportunities for each vehicle in your fleet.
Compare total ownership costs of EVs versus traditional vehicles.
Ensure that the EV range meets typical daily driving distances.
Assess availability of charging infrastructure at depots and along routes.
Review the current fleet composition. While options for cars, vans, and small trucks exist, HGVs aren’t yet considered for EV conversion.
Set up a program to test a small number of EVs and assess performance and feasibility.
Provide training and support for drivers and fleet managers on EV technology and charging procedures.
