Europcar Mobility Group UK has announced a vehicle supply deal with subscription provider Voltric.
The deal is said to allow Voltric to expand the range of vehicles it offers to salary sacrifice and business, as well as private customers, and ensure customers can have their chosen vehicle within two weeks.
Voltric’s customers can book specific makes and models from Europcar’s EV fleet with no up-front deposit and the ability to switch vehicles each month.
Voltric co-founder and CEO Julian Mensah said: “We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience life with an electric vehicle without the long-term commitment of buying or leasing.
“Working with Europcar will bolster our offering and help us achieve our ambition of turning EV doubters into EV drivers.
“Nationwide branches and the ability to make a wide range of EVs available quickly make Europcar a perfect partner.”
Europcar Mobility Group UK head of B2B marketing and sustainability spokesperson Tom Middleditch said: “Individual and fleet drivers want to make more sustainable mobility choices, but are often held back by the high purchase cost or the significant commitment required to lease an EV. In addition, EV technology is evolving so rapidly that a long-term commitment makes little sense.
“With Voltric, customers can change vehicles every few months, to ensure they always have the newest vehicle, the best tech and the longest range available.
“Bringing together this flexibility with the option to select a specific model means our partnership is a great fit for businesses looking at salary sacrifice schemes.”
