Via a plan, which Leeds City Council has launched in partnership with Highways England, West Yorkshire businesses and organisations can have a free trial of electric vans, including one of 20 Renault Kangoo Z.E.33 for up to two months.
Each van will be equipped with telematics devices, which gather journey and charging data, with users receiving a tailored report highlighting the findings and the environmental and potential financial benefits that transitioning to an electric vehicle can generate for businesses or organisations.
The Renault Kangoo Z.E. will make up nearly half the 50 electric vans and cars available to trial.
The all-electric vans replace several older vehicles, with others being added due to the growth and scope of Leeds City Council services.
