Car dealership invests in new vehicle fleet as staff go green
Charles Hurst Renault today announced a move to a cleaner, greener staff vehicle fleet.
In an investment of £600,000 by the company, the transformation demonstrates the dealership’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and incorporating environmentally friendly practices into its business model.
In a nod to the Renault Zoe’s green credentials, 20 Charles Hurst staff have opted for the 100% electric vehicle as their choice of company car. With 0% Road Tax and ultra-low running costs, the choice is also a financially-savvy one.
With the UK now boasting twice as many electric vehicle charging points to fuel stations*, turning to electric vehicles is a popular choice for consumers and businesses alike. The switch to an electric vehicle is estimated to allow the average motorist considerable savings per year.
The Renault Zoe boasts an impressive driving range of up to 245 miles per charge, and with an eight year battery warranty and zero tailpipe emissions, there’s no reason you have to make any sacrifices in your quest to reduce your carbon footprint.
Currently, Charles Hurst Renault are offering free installation of a home wall charger with the purchase of a Renault Zoe, meaning savings are bigger than ever when you switch.
Terry Murray, Charles Hurst Renault Fleet Manager, said:
“As Northern Ireland’s largest new and used car group, we’re proud to be championing the move to environmentally friendly vehicles as part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability initiatives. Charles Hurst’s significant investment in electric vehicles is a progressive and positive step towards reaching our environmental goals.
We recognise our role in helping to protect the environment for future generations and as a business, we are continually looking for new ways to improve our sustainability objective and the investment into Renault Zoe allows us to considerably reduce our carbon footprint.
With a range of up to 245 miles the Zoe is perfect for daily commutes and long trips, offering peace of mind and the ability to enjoy all the benefits of the switch to an electric vehicle. We know that the Renault Zoe is a fantastic car for both our staff and customers, and here at Charles Hurst Renault we look forward to helping our customers enjoy the benefits that driving a 100% electric vehicle brings.”
The all-new Renault Zoe van is also now available. As the UK’s only 100% electric car-derived van, it offers generous load capacity with ultra-low running costs.
