Ford E-Transits join Nurture Group fleet
Date: Monday, March 4, 2024 | Author: Sean Keywood
Service company Nurture Group has added 10 electric Ford E-Transit vans to its fleet.
The vehicles, which are being deployed with the company’s ground maintenance division, have been supplied by Northgate Vehicle Hire, with liveries by Rocket Graphics.
The vans’ spec includes the optional Pro Power Onboard feature, meaning they can act as a power source for maintenance equipment.
Nurture Group sustainability manager Gordon Brownrigg said: “I am really excited about this next round of EV vans as it represents our biggest single order of commercial EVs since we started electrifying the fleet.
“Using electric vans where we can is a critical step in our net zero journey and these additions will have a positive, tangible impact on reducing our carbon footprint. These vehicles will reduce our emissions by between 3t and 4.5t per year each.”
Group fleet manager Mohib Iqbal said: “We anticipate a substantial increase in the number of electric vehicles within our commercial fleet over the course of the next few years, further demonstrating our commitment to operating a greener fleet.
“The Ford E-Transit is a monumental step forward for the vehicle EV market and is ideally suited to the needs of the Nurture Group as the vehicle meets the requirements of our day-to-day operations.
“I would like to thank Northgate Vehicle Hire for supporting us with this transitional journey, Rocket Graphics for the application of our livery to these new vans and all our other key suppliers involved for fitting out additional accessories. I’m looking forward to seeing the vehicles out on the roads and visiting our customer sites.”
