ARRIVAL ELECTRIC VEHICLES PARTNER LEASEPLAN

Car and commercial vehicle leasing firm LeasePlan has won the contract to become Arrival's preferred operational leasing partner for the electric vehicle (EV) maker's new generation of electric vans.

The agreement with LeasePlan is based on an initial order of 3,000 vans with a finalised sales agreement expected in the coming months.

The deal, which was announced yesterday, was hailed by both companies as a major step forward for the EV market that should significantly increase the availability of electric vans for a wide range of customers.

LeasePlan has a global fleet of approximately 1.9 million vehicles and is one of the world's leading providers of 'delivery vans-as-a-service'. Nearly a quarter of LeasePlan's fleet are Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) and the company has previously announced plans to offer a net zero emissions for its "funded fleet" by 2030.

"LeasePlan is not only the world's largest Car-as-a-Service company, but they have also shown a long-term commitment to carbon footprint reduction," said Arrival's president Avinash Rugoobur. "Arrival is thrilled to be partnering with a fellow company leading the charge to accelerate the transition to zero-emissions vehicles, bringing sustainable mobility and cleaner air to cities around the world. This shows Arrival's method is truly game changing and can roll out in multiple locations rapidly." - link
