The cars join SWIFT’s 950-strong fleet, and are supported by a charging solution supplied by utility company Electrabel. There are 21 charging points at SWIFT’s headquarters, and 19 at participating employees’ homes. SWIFT says the i3s, all of which are range-extender models, were chosen for their ability to offer long-distance travel when needed. Employees can also access a conventionally-powered vehicle for 30 days per year. Caroline Ceustermans, SWIFT’s Fleet Manager, said: "Our mobility plan is constantly evolving: this new initiative allows employees with a relevant driving profile to have a direct positive impact on our overall emission level. It will also ensure that more electric vehicles will be chosen in the future.” Marc Vandenbergh, Director of Sales & Marketing at Alphabet, added: "It proves that AlphaElectric really works as a total concept to integrate alternative engines into existing company fleets, while still being user-friendly. For more comfort drivers can rely on Alphabet for a traditional car during e.g. their holiday periods. Alphabet is also there to assist in operational services or assistance related to their lease vehicle," says [© evfleetworld.co.uk] For EVLN posts use: http://evdl.org/evln/ http://time.com/3856522/bill-nye-science-guy-reddit-questions/ billnye.com praises Powerwall & wants wrist-device-called driverless- etaxi-cities> cleaner,quieter,nil-wrecks http://www.actionnewsjax.com/news/news/local/energy-expert-2030-cars-will-be-self-driving-elect/nmFX2/ http://www.newswiretoday.com/news/152552/ Automakers Shift Plugins Towards 6kw Onboard Chargers http://www.gizmag.com/electric-motorcycles-scooters-government-subsidy-uk/37309/ UK government to subsidize electric two-wheelers http://www.shanghaidaily.com/metro/society/Street-cleaner-killed-by-drunk-driver/shdaily.shtml EV-driving street-cleaner Xu-Yifeng killed by drunk-ice-driver @4:25a http://english.eastday.com/auto/eastday/metro/u1ai8487340.html http://www.sequimgazette.com/business/301725931.html L2 SCH EVSE @Sequim, WA Co-op Farm & Garden True Value store + EVLN: UK's 1000hp 1975 Electric Enfield (v) {brucedp.150m.com} -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/EVLN-SWIFT-rolls-out-Belgium-s-largest-i3-rex-pih-fleet-tp4675478.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
