Electric vehicles can save on fleet maintenance over ICE vehicles. But the electronic complexities of EVs need to be considered when formulating an EV fleet maintenance program.
Compact and mid-size electric vehicles (EVs) are now fully cost competitive with petrol and diesel cars across most European countries according to LeasePlan’s newly released 2021 Car Cost Index.
The police department in Westport, Conn. fleeted a Tesla Model 3 fully tricked out for law enforcement. This analysis breaks down costs — including patrol car-specific customizations — compared to the department's mainstay SUV model.
A lifecycle analysis by Vincentric found that total cost of ownership (TCO) for electric vehicles underperforms plug-in hybrid electric and traditional hybrid model counterparts. Running EVs more miles per year has a substantive positive impact on TCO.
The commercial fleet market wants EVs as evidenced by the increased number of national fleets that are adding low- or zero-emission equipment requirements into RFPs.
Included in this groundbreaking total cost of ownership study for fleets are battery-electric models including BMW i3, Chevrolet Bolt, Nissan Leaf, and Tesla 3, as well as plug-in hybrid electric models such as Chevrolet Volt and Hyundai Ioniq Plug-In Hybrid.
Propane may be a viable option for certain fleets looking for an alternative fuel source. While converting a vehicle to a propane system comes with a high initial cost, the system may come with reduced lifecycle costs over the course of that vehicle's life.
Kelley Blue Book will deliver a comprehensive overview of the electric vehicle market, while Vincentric will present total cost of ownership (TCO) data for available electric models.
There’s water, water everywhere, and little of it being transformed into fuel. Nikola Motor wants to change that – as well as the way fleets pay for trucks and their fuel – as it rolls out the new hydrogen-powered Nikola Two.
Dana has launched its total-cost-ownership calculator to help fleets and independent operators make cost comparisons between traditional diesel platforms and full-electric powertrain solutions.
