EV & Low CO2 Fleet Show

The EV & Low CO₂ Fleet Show is a one-day event being held at the world-famous Silverstone circuit on Wedneday the 18th April. The event will feature major motor manufacturers who have pioneered the development and production of electric vehicles, including Renault, Nissan, Peugeot and Citroen.

The event is being organised by Fleet World magazine in association with the British Vehicle Rental & Leasing Association, the trade association of the UK’s leasing and rental industries, with the event being sponsored by the Energy Saving Trust.

If you fancy attending the event, at the Silverstone racing circuit in Northamptonshire, there will be a wide range of electric, hybrid and other low-carbon vehicles that will be available for driving around the famous track.

Ross Durkin, Managing Editor of Fleet World, said: “The show is really starting to take shape now. We’re delighted that four of the motor manufacturers who have really been at the forefront of EV development will be at the event in order to help fleet managers really understand the potential for incorporating electric vehicles onto their fleet”.

The EV & Low CO₂ Fleet Show will allow visitors to:

- Test drive the latest petrol-electric hybrids, diesel-electric hybrids, fuel-cell hybrids and electric range-extenders, as well as many of the latest low-emission petrol and diesel engine vehicles

- Discuss future drivetrain strategies with leading motor manufacturers that attend the event

- Find out more about low-emission light commercial vehicles

- Talk to EV charging point suppliers and recharging infrastructure providers

- Discuss low-carbon vehicle supply with leading vehicle leasing suppliers

The government has announced that it is going to maintain the current MOT test frequencies and concentrate on improving testing standards and cracking down on clockers, which is welcome news. The British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association (BVRLA) chief executive, John Lewis, commented as follows:

“The once a year after three years model works perfectly well for cars and vans as long as test centres do their job properly. Our only disappointment is that the government didn’t listen to our calls for safety recall notices to be made an MOT criterion. It is ridiculous that a car can pass its MOT while having an outstanding safety recall notification that hasn’t been dealt with.”

“We would also urge the government to go further in clamping down on clockers by introducing some sort of licensing system for mileage adjustment companies.”

Skoda MissionL

SKODA’s is attending the 2012 Qatar Motor Show where it will be showcasing their MissionL concept saloon. This car is a close-to-production concept and reveals the future design direction for the SKODA brand. The visit to the Qatar Motor Show also demonstrates their future international growth strategy plans.

The new compact MissionL saloon will be launched in late 2012 and will extend the model range of the brand in a new segment between the Fabia and Octavia models. The MissionL is destined for Qatar as well and SKODA aims to substantially increase their global sales of all car models to at least 1.5 million units per year, by 2018. In addition to the MissionL, SKODA is also displaying the latest Fabia, Octavia, Yeti and Superb models at the show.

The MissionL concept saloon impresses with its clear and precise lines with the front showing SKODA’s new brand design. The revised and freshened-up SKODA logo is now prominently positioned on the bonnet’s rounded front end and the grille sports a chrome frame and is made of vertical plate fins. There is also a black transparent glass roof that spans across the car’s interior with the cockpit conveying its spaciousness thanks to its horizontal arrangement.  

If you are interested in leasing a brand new Skoda car then we have the full Skoda model range on the site on contract hire.

If you are thinking of leasing a brand new car for the new 12-plate registration in March, don’t assume if you order now your new car will arrive on time. Vehicle lead time and availability will vary tremendously from manufacturer to manufacturer.

The more accessories you add to your car specification, may also cause a delay to your vehicle delivery (lead time). It can be so frustrating to spend hours deciding on the exact car you want, colour (both inside and out) and your bespoke accessories, to then be told that it is “16 weeks and a factory order”.

So if you are thinking of leasing a brand new car, order as soon as you are able, for your new 12-plate registration.

Citroen DS3 Ultra Prestige

Citroen has just introduced the new DS3 Ultra Prestige to its UK range. The luxury, DS3 Ultra Prestige combines sophisticated style, a premium specification and the distinctive personality of the DS line range. It is powered by a sporty THP 155 petrol engine or a fuel and CO₂ efficient e-HDi 110 diesel with Stop & Start. The latter offers you 74.4 combined mpg and CO2 emissions of just 99g/km so is ideal as a company car.

The DS3 Ultra Prestige’s front seats are fitted with ‘watchstrap’ design seat upholstery in ‘Club’ leather and also sport a ‘crescendo’ colour effect that is entirely new and unique. Inspired by the world of fashion, the colour of the leather on the front seats gradually changes from white at the top of the seat back to black on the seat base.

Inside the cabin, the dashboard strip is covered in ‘Alpine’ white leather and embossed with the distinctive DS signature. The white colour dials also match the white of the interior detailing, for that extra styling effect. Ultra-thick protective mats are braided with double top-stitching in contrasting colours, plus leather trim is also fitted to the door panels and central armrest.

The vehicle specification is based on DSport trim level and the DS3 Ultra Prestige is available with a choice of two exterior body colours – Polar White and Thorium Grey. The car features a sports spoiler, dark-tinted side and rear windows and 17” charcoal-grey alloy wheels. The‘Ultra Prestige’ graphic (that covers the model’s black roof with the DS insignia) provides a range of colour contrasts, shifting from matt to gloss as the light changes. 

In addition to the DSport’s equipment specification (that already includes automatic digital air conditioning and a Bluetooth^® enabled Hi-Fi system), the DS3 Ultra Prestige gains Citroën’s integrated MyWay colour satellite navigation system, rear parking sensors, automatic headlamps and windscreen wipers, electrically heated and folding door mirrors and an electrochrome rear view mirror. Features which are normally seen on a top-of-the-range executive car. Citroen contract hire leasing prices on the DS3 Ultra Prestige should be loaded soon.
