Fleet management company Fleet Alliance has claimed its fleet emissions has fallen to an all-time low of 116g/km of CO2 per vehicle for the cars it manages ordered in the first quarter of the year.
The firm said that 81% of all cars ordered across its 18,000 vehicle fleet have been sub-129g/km of CO2 with 28% of them emitting less than 100g/km of CO2.
The company said it has been advising fleet drivers of the importance of setting fleet policies that encourage the take-up of low carbon-emitting cars, while it is working with the Energy Saving Trust to offer best practice advice for hybrid, electric and grey fleet vehicles.
“Carbon emissions are falling across our whole fleet and so far this year are down to an average of 116g/km, the lowest we have seen to date,” said Martin Brown, Fleet Alliance managing director.
“This will continue to fall as clients increasingly follow our advice and switch to greener cars. This has the effect of not only cutting their carbon footprints but reducing their tax and fuel bills too,” said Brown.
