Advantia teams up with Lexus to offer exclusive electric and hybrid car lease schemes, promoting sustainability in business fleets

Over the last few months Advantia has been working on a new and very different supplier arrangement for its members and their customer base. At the forefront of this new arrangement is the drive towards helping and supporting both on their own sustainability journeys.

As you may be aware, the UK government has stated that they want all new cars built after 2030 to be electric or hybrid versions only, and fully electric by 2035; so no more petrol or diesel versions to be manufactured. Cities across the country have, and continue to, introduce clean air zones and drivers of vehicles that do not meet the Euro 4 or Euro 6 specifications are having to pay a daily rate to drive into those areas. As an example, the ULEZ rate in London for a non-compliant car is £12.50 per day.

As we know, the transition across to an electric or hybrid car can seem a bit daunting but, as businesses work on their own sustainability journeys vehicle fleets will be high on the list of priorities. With that in mind we have been working in collaboration with the car manufacturer Lexus to create an exclusive arrangement for Advantia members and their customers to explore, and potentially take up the opportunity to switch to an electric or hybrid car, on a business contract hire lease scheme. As a business, Lexus has been working on its own sustainability programme for the last 25 years.

Steve Carter – Advantia MD – “We are really excited about this opportunity with Lexus, as it endorses our commitment to helping our members and their customers, as much as we possibly can, on their own sustainability journeys. There is an exclusive and very attractive arrangement in place for Advantia members to utilise and although the deal is mainly focussed on the Lexus brand, we can also access certain other manufacturers brands including commercial vehicles.”

Ben Wildeboer – Lexus Business Centre Manager – “At Lexus Swindon we are thrilled to begin this dynamic partnership with Advantia. We take immense pride in Lexus’ exemplary track record of producing low CO2 emissions and pioneering electrified vehicles with this collaboration signifying a harmonious fusion of both ours and Advantia’s shared values, emphasising fantastic customer service and a collective push towards a greener future.

By utilising Lexus’ unmatched expertise in high quality and extremely reliable electrified cars we aim to enhance Advantia’s commitment to sustainability, offering their partners and customers access to high quality, personalised advice and information when it comes to their business fleet requirements, as well as our range of environmentally conscious vehicles which are also cost and tax efficient.”
