WELCOME Welcome to GREENFLEET Cymru Against many odds we are delighted to bring GREENFLEET Cymru back for its third year.

Having taken the electrification strategy to Cardiff and Swansea in 2018 and 2019, our plans were to return to the capital this year… but things have changed. Due to the COVID pandemic, we have had to repurpose ALL the GREENFLEET Road-2-Zero Roadshow events, online; and the transition has been hugely successful.

All from the safety and comfort of your ‘home office’ or even workplace, here’s what we have in store for you today.

Kate Armitage, GREENFLEET Ambassador and your Event Host will expertly guide you through a great morning of Peer Chat, Live Polls, Interactive Q&As and of course Keynotes from top-line industry professionals, including Russell Fowler from National Grid and Kevin Booker, who has led Brecon Beacons National Park Authority’s EV strategy. Also hear from our GREENFLEET partners, OLEV, Crown Commercial Service and SMMT and stick around for vehicle updates from Kia, Toyota and Maxus.

are keeping it Social - so Tweet and share on LinkedIn ‘til your fingers and thumbs ache!

National Grid National Grid may be a wellknown name, but there are often misconceptions as to what we actually do. We own the Electricity Transmission in England and Wales, as well as the Gas Transmission for the whole of Great Britain.

In more relatable terms, this means that we own the Motorways and Dual Carriageways of the energy system, where the local A and B roads are run by Regional Distribution Networks; hence we are critical to keeping the lights on and the gas flowing. National Grid does not buy, sell, or generate electricity, we simply transport it from where it’s made

to where it’s consumed. We obviously share the target of net zero by 2050, are confident about meeting this target.

In this vein of sustainability, we are aware that as the Transmission Owner, we have an essential role when it comes to the electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the UK. National Grid can cope with 100% EVs and having the right ‘future proof’ grid capacity at the right location ahead of need is key to success for charge point owners.

National Grid is the enabler of the low carbon transport future, and we see collaboration ensuring this ‘managed transition’ to clean transport.

SPONSORS Maxus (Harris Automotive Distributors) Maxus UK is a joint venture between SAIC (Shanghai Automotive etc) and Harris Distributors in Dublin.

SAIC Motor’s manufacturers both passenger and commercial vehicles across many brands including the wholly owned Maxus range.. In 2018, SAIC Motor achieved a sales volume of 7.05 million and accounted for 24.1% of the Chinese market, making itself the first Chinese auto company with annual sales over 7 million vehicles. With consolidated revenue of $136.39 billion, SAIC Motor took the 39th place on the 2019 Fortune Global 500 list. SAIC also have joint venture agreements with one of the worlds largest

vehicle battery manufacturers, CATL. Harris Group are the Dublin based distributor for Maxus UK, Ireland & right hand drive Europe a partnership which began in 2016 with the agreement for Harris Group to become the distributor for the re-introduced LDV range of large panel vans and chassis. Harris Group achieved success with large truck sales and distribution since their inception in 1961 with the likes of Hino Truck, Higer and latterly with Isuzu and LDV. The recent re-branding of LDV to MAXUS follows on from the success of the LDV reintroduction and in particular the sale of nearly1000 large electric panel vans, the EV80 model.

https://saicmaxus.co.uk

Toyota & Lexus Fleet Toyota and Lexus sales account for nearly 50% of the UK’s alternatively fuelled vehicles. Switching to a Toyota and Lexus self-charging hybrid fleet cuts CO2 emissions, uses less fuel, and reduces whole-life costs.

It also ensures drivers can enjoy exceptional vehicle quality, safety and style alongside a smooth, quietlyrefined hybrid driving experience.

Toyota and Lexus received a recordbreaking number of awards in 2019. The bumper honours haul reflects the quality of our model ranges – both new and established. In the Which? 2019/20 Car Guide, twelve Toyota models achieved ‘Best Buy’ status following independent lab tests.

The current Yaris Hybrid, Prius+ and RAV4 Hybrid, plus used favourites such as the Auris and Prius Plug-in were all praised for reliability. Lexus, meanwhile was named Best Car Brand in the 2019 Which? Awards, in recognition of its industry-leading technology and the high quality of its vehicles.

It’s over 20 years since the first Prius hybrid was launched. Today, Toyota and Lexus have a model line-up that includes 20 hybrid models. Recent additions include the Corolla, which is built in Britain, the RAV4 and the Camry, plus the Lexus UX compact SUV and ES saloon.

2020 sees two more exciting arrivals with the All-New RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid and the All-New Toyota Yaris. www.toyotalexusfleet.co.uk
