Electric van planning tool

Amsterdam, Netherlands: Webfleet has an electric vehicle transition tool to support businesses transitioning to electric vehicles or expanding their EV fleets. The tool allows fleets to use their own data to assess their readiness for electrification, estimate the total cost of ownership for going electric, the operational cost and CO2 savings.

Additionally, fleets can gain valuable insights into the most suitable EV models and the estimated charging infrastructure needed for their specific operations. The tool simplifies decision-making for fleet managers and allows them to directly contact partners of the Webfleet electric vehicle services platform, Webfleet says.

Initially, customers can connect directly to VEV, Heliox, The Mobility House, CTEK, Justplugin, ChargeGuru and Zeplug for end-to-end charging at depots, workplaces and homes, streamlining the setup of charging infrastructure.

“Our goal is to take the guesswork out of the EV transition for our customers, based on their own fleet data,” said Taco Olthoff, EV programme director of Bridgestone Mobility Solutions.

“By providing fleets of all sizes with a quick TCO estimation, they can kickstart their electrification journey without the need for time-consuming and costly consultancy. Users can then take the next steps to electrification, supported by our network of expert partners, directly accessible within the tool itself.”

The introduction of the Webfleet EV Transition Tool marks a significant step forward in fleet electrification support. The solution utilises fleet data for customised fleet electrification plans at no extra cost to European Webfleet customers subscribed to specific tariffs.

The toll is available initially for cars and vans with plans to expend vehicle types later.
