Open-End Leasing – Your Key to Business FlexibilityLeasing allows the business to pay for only the portion of the vehicles they use. This reduces the monthly payment when compared to financing a vehicle where you pay and finance 100% of the vehicle and pay tax on the total price.
Is Your EV Fleet Prepared for a Lithium-ion Battery Fire?When compared to gasoline and hybrid vehicles, electric cars have the lowest number of fires per 100,000 sales. Electric vehicles are powered by lithium-ion batteries and EV fires are typically related to the battery. While electric vehicle fires occur less frequently, they burn longer and hotter than other fires. This is due to a chemical reaction in the battery called thermal runaway.
BEST PRACTICES – MANAGING AN EV FLEETElectric vehicle (EV) fleet management requires a different approach compared to managing a fleet of traditional combustion engine vehicles. Here are some best practices for EV fleet management:

Electric vehicles sales in the US surpassed one million vehicles in 2018. The consumer traction is significant but fleet and government/municipal sales are growing rapidly. Madison, Wisconsin and New York City are sporting EV taxis. Nashville and Chicago have EV-only black car services. There are good reasons why municipalities and local governments are making the move to electric vehicles.
