Members have asked the BVRLA about obtaining a Certificate of Conformity (CoC) to access the zero-emission mileage (ZEM) figure of a particular vehicle. The association can confirm that a CoC is not needed unless you are planning to export a vehicle.

BVRLA members and guests will be joined by Transport Secretary Grant Shapps at the association’s Fleets in Charge event next month, as he recognises the important role that the vehicle rental, leasing and fleet sectors play in delivering the UK’s zero-emission goals.

The Office for Low Emission Vehicles has advised that it has received a surge in applications for the plug-in vehicle grants in recent months.

A new survey from The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders suggests that almost half of UK motorists do not feel ready to make the switch to electric vehicles by 2035.

The BVRLA recently responded to the Department for Transport’s consultation calling for ideas to inform the Government’s Transport Decarbonisation Plan.

UK new car registrations rose for the first time this year, by 11.3%, according to July figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).

During recent weeks the BVRLA has attended a series of Transport Decarbonisation workshops hosted by the Department for Transport.

Last week, the association submitted its formal response to the Government’s consultation on the proposed phasing out of new petrol, diesel and hybrid cars and vans by 2035. 

Setting a single date for ending the sale of new petrol, diesel and hybrid vehicles would be a mistake, the BVRLA has told the Government in its response to the 2035 phase out consultation.

The latest BVRLA Interview sees Scott Jenkins, Sales and Operations Director at Autohorn Fleet Services, speaking to BVRLA’s Fran Hampson about how his business has transitioned to offering electric vehicles on their rental fleet.
