Brighton & Hove Buses add six all-electric Renault Kangoo Z.E to fleet

Brighton & Hove Buses, which is part of the Go Ahead Group, has added six 100 per cent electric Renault Kangoo Z.E. Vans to their fleet.

Brighton & Hove Buses are committed to acting sustainably and were key in helping owning group Go-Ahead become the first transport company to achieve the Carbon Trust Standard for reducing year-on-year emissions in carbon, water and waste.

The vans are Congestion Charge exempt, eligible for the upcoming Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ), eligible for the Government Plug-in Van Grant (PiVG), and are VED exempt.

Steve Ambury, engineering director of Brighton & Hove Buses commented: “As a forward thinking transport provider we needed a van that not only worked for us financially but one that is moving the game forward. The Renault Kangoo Van Z.E. perfectly suits our requirements whilst reducing the companies’ tax liabilities and carbon footprint.”
