Meer werknemers krijgen een leasefiets aangeboden, maar nog steeds een heel groot deel niet. En de discussie over elektrische fatbikes laait weer op. We ontvangen fabrikant Phatfour. 0:37 | Leasefiets Meer mensen krijgen een leasefiets aangeboden, maar nog steeds de helft van de werknemers niet. Dat blijkt uit het nieuwste fietsonderzoek van ALD Automotive. We bespreken de resultaten met Remco Tekstra, sectiemanager fietsen bij de RAI Vereniging. 12:04 | Fatbikes Fatbikes liggen onder een vergrootglas en niet alleen vanwege het opvoeren. Afgelopen week stopten meerdere verzekeraars met het verzekeren van elektrische fatbikes, omdat ze te vaak gestolen worden. We spreken Pieter van Beusekom, oprichter van Phatfour.

Nederlanders gaan liever met de fiets dan met de auto naar kantoor, maar ze doen het tegenovergestelde. Iets meer dan de helft van de Nederlanders gaat, zonder rekening te houden met afstand, liever op de fiets dan met de auto naar kantoor. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek naar woon-werkverkeer in opdracht van ALD Automotive. Toch is de praktijk weerbarstig, want 53 procent reist meestal met de auto en minder dan een derde met de (elektrische) fiets.

Programa emitido en Onda Cero MS el jueves 22 de Junio. En el programa de esta semana hablamos de la emocionante experiencia que vivimos en la decimocuarta edición del ALD Ecomotion Tour. Este encuentro, organizado por ALD Automotive y LeasePlan la aventura comenzó en el emblemático Puente ZahaHadid, ubicado en Mobility City en Zaragoza. Un total de 20 marcas y 25 vehículos participaron en la competición, cada uno de ellos comprometido con la conducción eficiente en diferentes tipos de carreteras. El objetivo era claro: lograr reducir el consumo medio oficial WLTP, y aquel que obtuviera el mayor porcentaje de reducción sería el ganador. Durante el ALD Ecomotion Tour 2023, se destacó la importancia de la conducción eco-friendly y se promovieron soluciones sostenibles en el ámbito de la movilidad. La competición fue una oportunidad para demostrar cómo la tecnología y las prácticas responsables pueden contribuir a reducir el impacto medioambiental en nuestras carreteras. En el programa de esta semana, compartiremos los detalles de esta experiencia única y entrevistaremos a Pedro Malla Director General de ALD Automotive y Lease Plan. Continuamos el programa hablando del mundo de la música que es un camino arduo hacia el éxito. Consciente de la dificultad que enfrentan los artistas emergentes, el reconocido productor y cantautor Alejo Stivel, cofundador del grupo Tequila y descubridor de otros iconos nacionales como M-Clan, se embarca en una nueva iniciativa llamada 'MiniStage', en colaboración con Mini España. Bajo este nombre, se presenta una plataforma innovadora que busca brindar a los nuevos talentos musicales una oportunidad de darse a conocer ante el gran público. La premisa es clara: con tan solo 13 segundos de genialidad, se puede obtener un trampolín hacia el estrellato. Este enfoque disruptivo pretende romper con los esquemas tradicionales y ofrecer una ventana de visibilidad única para los artistas que buscan proyectarse en la industria musical. 'MiniStage' se posiciona como un escaparate donde los músicos emergentes tienen la posibilidad de captar la atención de las masas y destacar por su talento. Es una oportunidad para aquellos que desean progresar en su carrera musical y dejar una huella en la industria. Con esta iniciativa, se espera que los nuevos talentos encuentren una plataforma sólida para impulsar sus carreras y alcanzar sus sueños musicales. 'MiniStage' representa una oportunidad emocionante y desafiante para aquellos que buscan brillar en la industria de la música y dejar su huella en el panorama artístico actual. En la sección de Seguridad Vial con Jose Lagunar hablamos de la Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT) que ha lanzado recientemente una importante campaña para controlar los vehículos de transporte infantil. Consciente de la importancia de proteger a los más pequeños durante sus desplazamientos escolares, la DGT busca concienciar a los conductores sobre la necesidad de garantizar un transporte seguro y adecuado para los niños. Esta campaña pone de relieve la responsabilidad que tenemos como sociedad de proteger a los niños mientras se desplazan hacia y desde sus centros educativos. Los vehículos de transporte infantil, como los autobuses escolares o los vehículos privados que llevan a los niños al colegio, deben cumplir con estrictas normas de seguridad para garantizar un viaje libre de riesgos. La vigilancia, la educación y la concienciación, se espera que cada vez más conductores y profesionales del transporte cumplan rigurosamente las normativas y brinden un entorno seguro para nuestros pequeños, garantizando así su bienestar y tranquilidad en los trayectos escolares. Cerramos con una notica curiosa y es cuando se trata de crear matrículas para vehículos, hay ciertas letras o combinaciones que nunca verás en circulación. Estas restricciones se imponen para evitar posibles coincidencias que puedan resultar ofensivas o tener significados negativos. Una de las precauciones más comunes es evitar el uso de vocales en las matrículas. Esta medida se toma para evitar cualquier posibilidad de que se formen palabras o secuencias de letras que puedan resultar hirientes o tener una connotación negativa por sí mismas. Al eliminar las vocales de las opciones, se reduce significativamente la probabilidad de que se produzcan combinaciones indeseables o comprometedoras.

Topic Discussed : Start-ups Driving Innovation in Upstream Oil & GasSpeaker: Rasholeen Nakra, Frost & Sullivan with Talgat Shokanov, CEO and president at QuantumPro; Yvonne van den Berg, co-founder and chief commercial officer at Ingu Solutions; Evyatar Meiron, CEO at Fieldbit; and Mark McClure, CEO at ResFracThe oil and gas industry has overcome major volatility over the past decade. We have witnessed $130 oil and, more recently, $30 oil. Now we are seeing an outburst of start-ups and a changing culture that is founded on innovation. The upstream oil and gas industry is increasingly focused on cutting costs and improving recovery rates through the adoption of radical new solutions and digital technologies. While some oil & gas companies are developing these innovations themselves, many are investing, acquiring or partnering with start-up companies to drive change. Some believe we are in the "Golden Age” of emerging technology development and investment. The oil and gas start-up ecosystem is certainly alive and growing.Key takeaways include: Discover start-up companies that are providing innovative solutions to industry challengesHear real success stories and pain points from start-upsInteract with start-up companiesFor further insights, please join us for future podcasts and become a member of Frost & Sullivan’s Leadership Council by emailing us at: digital@frost.com or click here to Contact Us.Related Keywords: Frost & Sullivan, Financial lease, operating lease, outright purchase, Company car, Key market participants, financial lease, operating lease, Passenger Vehicles (PV), light commercial vehicles (LCVs), Total car parc, new registrations, total fleet sales, emerging trends, LeadsPlan, ALD Automotive, Arval, Element Fleet, VolkswagenWebsite: www.frost.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Gedragsverandering is de route naar de oplossing, meent Jeroen Kruisweg, algemeen directeur van ALD Automotive. 'Wij proberen mensen uit de auto te krijgen. En als je dan een auto stil voor de deur hebt staan, dan kan het zelfs economisch handig zijn om iemand anders met die auto te laten rijden.' Veel bedrijven nemen op papier wel hun verantwoordelijkheid, maar in de praktijk blijven ze toch vaak steken in goede bedoelingen.

Tuesday 27th March 2018. BEAUTIFUL BENTEY BATTERIES Bentleys led designer Stefan Sielaff recently told Auto express that “A full electric Bentley is something I am extremely convinced we have to do. It will happen not so far in the future”. For executives used to not saying anything because it’s all so competitive, we can take that as a ‘yes’ for something coming. This ties into what had previously been reported about possibly using the Mission E platform. Electric luxury cars make so much sense from the perspective of the driver in that they’re quiet and very fast. From an engineering perspective those large cars provide ample room for a 100 or 120kW battery for long ranges, plus a motor front and rear gives incredibly speed plus safety. And for a designer, an EV takes away all that engine and transmission from a luxury car which can be used for extra space. They can start with a blank sheet of paper to reimagine something fresh. Those luxury cars need to waft across long distances with 4 or 5 adults and all their luggage, and an electric drivetrain suits that perfectly. This is all part of a plan to bring a new type of customer to Bentley. Auto Express say: “The next-generation Continental GT will get a PHEV drivetrain, and the Crewe manufacturer plans to have its entire range electrified by 2025. Speculation at one time was that the EV could be called "Barnato," an homage to Joel Woolf "Babe" Barnato, one of the original Bentley Boys of the 1920s.” https://www.autoblog.com/2018/03/26/designer-full-electric-bentley FANTASTIC FLEETS A new report from ALD Automotive shows nearly all company car journeys could be taken in an EV. ALDs telematics showed that 77% of fleet journeys were LESS than 1oo miles a day. They surveyed random company cars covering a total of 95,000 miles and 2,396 hours of total journey time. 52% of daily journeys were even below 50 miles a day. Only 12% of daily journeys were over 150 miles a day. Matt Dale, consultancy services manager for ALD Automotive said: ““Increasingly, we’re seeing the opportunity for fleets to employ a more holistic mobility strategy that looks beyond the traditional view of a single company car. For many journeys, public transport, car share, pool or hire cars are the more sensible option from both a cost and convenience perspective. On the few occasions where electric vehicles aren’t practical, drivers can supplement their travel with these more appropriate forms of transport. Fleets may well find that, due to the lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) implications of running Plug-in Hybrid (PHEVs) and BEVs, they can afford to facilitate other smart, mobility solutions and still save money.” NICE ONE, NORWAY! A report on Electrive today shows that EV sales in Norway now to 5.1%, last year pure BEV’s were up over 40%, and there are 142,000 all electric cars and vans currently driving around Norway on lovely clean energy from all their renewables. Tesla have had a slow Jan and Feb in Norway but so far have delivered over 1,000 cars in Norway with another week of the month left. In the capital Oslo, for every 1000 cars you see, 37 are electric. https://fleetworld.co.uk/77-of-fleet-journeys-could-be-completed-by-evs/ JAGUAR HEADING TO N.Y.C. The New York International Motor Show is soon and a press release landed from Jaguar Land Rover. They’ll be at the show with the F-PACE, I-PACE and E-PACE compact performance SUV. Of their I-PACE they say: “The Jaguar I-PACE is the electric vehicle drivers have been waiting for. Clean, smart and safe, I-PACE delivers sustainable sports car performance, next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) technology and five-seat SUV practicality to place Jaguar at the forefront of the EV revolution. With a state-of-the-art 90kWh lithium-ion battery using 432 pouch cells, I-PACE delivers a range of up to 480km (WLTP cycle). Owners will be able to achieve a 0-80 per cent battery charge in 40 minutes using DC charging (150kW). From 2020 all new Jaguar Land Rover vehicles will be electrified, giving customers even more choice. A portfolio of electrified products will be introduced across the entire model range, embracing fully electric, plug-in hybrid and mild hybrid vehicles as well as continuing to offer ultra-clean petrol and diesel engines. https://www.automotiveworld.com/news-releases/three-new-jaguar-land-rover-vehicles-share-spotlight-new-york WORKHORSE 100-MILE EV VANS Finally according to Clean Technica: “Workhorse* will introduce it N-Gen all electric van at the San Francisco City Hall on March 28. The battery electric N-Gen is an all-wheel drive delivery vehicle that features a low floor height and a tall roof for ease of access. N-Gen vans will be available in the San Francisco Bay area starting next month. The N-Gen van has a range of 100 miles. Workhorse has also developed large PHEV delivery vans for UPS and WB Mason that lower tailpipe emissions while offering lower fuel and maintenance costs.” Follow the link in the show notes to read more from Clean Technica. https://cleantechnica.com/2018/03/26/workhorse-will-unveil-n-gen-electric-van-san-francisco-march-28 I’d love to spread the word about electric cars so, if you can, share this somebody who might be interested.

Thursday 15th March 2018. NORWAYS KONA LOVE AFFAIR Firstly I was chatting to Christina Bu, who is Secretary General of the Norwegian EV Association, last night on Twitter because she’d said there were 18,000 expressions of interest in the new Hynudai Kona. I replied that sounds like the figure I’d heard from South Korea the EV incentive is ending but not for those with their names down, and she replied no, what she was talking about was only those in Norway. Now these aren’t deposits but 18,000 people who have registered as wanting one. Christina put me onto an article which, although I had to use Google Translate, I got the general point of. It looks like that from July, through to the end of the year, Hyundai want to ship 2,500 Kona EVs to Norway. One of my presumptions was that due to domestic demand in South Korea but also due to a limited initial run, Europe and North America would be waiting until 2019. That’s great news. Has production increased? Are they prioritising Norway because it’s just a large EV market? Hopefully we’ll know more soon but there’s no doubt, if they can make enough, they’ll sell a lot of the long range Kona and sister car the Kia Niro. https://www.tv2.no/a/9728933/ VW EV PRODUCTION Following up the VW news about $25bn of battery contracts secured for Europe and China, with North America still in negotiations, some news about where they will be built into the new VW cars. According to Matthias Schmidt, and auto analyst, “I.D. Production gets underway Q3 2019 (one line in Zwickau) moving to a double production line during 2020 (daily production 1.5k)”. It sounds a lot but remember by 2020 Tesla want to be making 500,000 Model 3’s every year. VW’S CHINA DEBUT CAR Staying with VW news and according to EV Obsession pictures of Volkswagen’s first Chinese electric vehicle, built in its joint venture with JAC, have surfaced from patent The Volkswagen and JAC joint venture should be presenting its 3 models by the end of the quarter, according to Gasgoo and spy images of indicate the first car will be based on the existing iEV7S. It may well be badged with VW’s Seat brand, but this article says: building its electric vehicles from an existing line-up is smart as JAC electric cars are well designed and it will drastically cut entry to market time as the factories and suppliers are already working to make iEV7S and can probably easily migrate based on demand. They won’t be premium, there will be no bells and whistles, but they’ll be solid and VERY cheap by other EV standards. https://evobsession.com/volkswagen-first-chinese-electric-vehicle-platform-nearing-release/ BMW LET YOU RETURN YOUR DIESEL FOR FREE So, do you remember those new, clean, diesel engines which were made to suit Euro 6 emission standards. This isn’t such as issue in America but I wanted to highlight it because it’s an insight into why we ALL haven’t got EV’s sooner. Those new engines were introduced in 2014/15 and, typically, have a life cycle of 7 or so years. So you might wonder why so many car makers have big plans from 2020/21, that’s part of the explanation. And with a focus on ensuring those R&D costs are recouped you can expect to see another couple of bumpy years for electric cars versus combustion engines. As an example of that, BMW just said if you buy a diesel you can return it. Described as a last ditch attempt to shift fossil fuels cars, the 'diesel return promise' starts in Germany this week, and allows anyone who leases a new BMW with a diesel engine to return the car to the Munich-based carmaker if a driving restriction on diesels is introduced in a city within 62 miles of their home, according to Motor1.com. They continue: BMW has also announced it will offer an 'environmental bonus' to owners of older diesel powered vehicles which will be affected by new restrictions. Owners of Euro 4 vehicles or older can receive up to £1,770 towards the purchase of an purchase an i3, a plug-in hybrid or a new Euro 6 vehicle with CO2 emissions of 130g/km or less. It’s great news for those who want peace of mind but, looking at the bigger picture, if you have to offer a money back guarantee on anything you sell, whatever the product, you need to worry. I think they’re worried. They make incredible cars like the i3 and i8, soon the i4 and iX3. But yes that sounds like a company who need to shift more dirty, sorry, clean fossil fuels cars for just a little while longer. https://uk.motor1.com/news/235869/bmw-diesel-return-promise/ PHEV’S SAVE FLEET OWNERS MONEY Moving on and fleet sales are a big profit line for car makers. And now, according to FleetNews: Data from ALD Automotive’s plug-in hybrid and ProFleet telematics trials has shown fleets could save £2,000 if they switch from diesel to PHEV. They say: In the six-month investigation, ALD business drivers swapped petrol and diesel cars for plugin hybrids. Running these vehicles for 15,000 miles a year for either three or four years, ALD concluded that businesses could save up to £2,000 for every vehicle replaced by the PHEV version. Matt Dale, head of consultancy at ALD, said: “We went into this trial with a very open mind and decided from the start there would be no preconceptions, but that it would be a factual review of PHEVs to see how they work. The results in certain cases have surprised us.” https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/fleet-industry-news/2018/03/12/every-diesel-vehicle-replaced-with-phev-could-save-2-000 INCREASING BATTERY PRODUCTION Next up, according to Push EVs, LG Chem’s battery plant in Poland which currently produces 100,000 batteries a year is to triple it’s output. They said: While in China Volkswagen chose CATL, in Europe Volkswagen will probably choose LG Chem as its EV battery cell supplier for the MEB platform. However, in the near future it seems that the upcoming second generation Renault Zoe and the 2019 Nissan Leaf will use most of LG Chem’s EV battery production capacity in Europe. They continue: Samsung SDI’s battery cell production in Hungary will start this quarter, so you can expect the much awaited battery capacity upgrade (42,62 kWh) for the BMW i3 to be announced in early summer. Furthermore, SK innovation is building its new EV battery plant in Europe.

Now they’re increasing those prices. Tesla's largest market in the U.S. is California, and its rates increased from $0.20 per kWh to $0.26 per kWh. In New York, the rate increased from $0.19 per kWh to $0.24 per kWh. However, the biggest increase so far has to be Oregon, which previously had a relatively low charging fee of $0.12 per kWh. Now, it's more in line with the other states at $0.24 per kWh. A similar thing happened here in the UK a while ago. A company called EcoTricity spent a lot of money early on putting in chargers on the main road networks. Whilst they were doing that, it was on free vend. Electricity became a thing which was free. And then when they said they needed to now start charging, as they’re not a charity, when you were reading the EV forums and posts on Twitter it was like people had their life savings taken away. The rates are reasonable and somehow these chargers have to be paid for along with the electricity they’re buying. https://hothardware.com/news/tesla-hikes-ev-supercharger-rates-across-us-by-as-much-as-100-percent TESLA SEMI STOPS FOR A BREWSKI Next up, and staying with Tesla, that long range Semi Truck has been on the move, 2000 miles in fact. It showed up at the Anheuser- Busch brewery in St. Louis on. Tuesday. Teslarati point out: “Tesla’s high-powered Megachargers, are set to be installed at key locations frequently visited by fleet operators. This system would enable the Semi to travel from one facility to another without compromising its range. With this in mind, the Anheuser-Busch facility in St. Louis definitely seems to be a site where the beer giant could build a charging stations for the 40 Tesla Semis that the company ordered”. Tesla seem to be testing their prototypes in public which is very brave. Remember the new Roadster which stopped on the road in California, which Tesla said was very much NOT broken down, they took a bit of teasing on social media for that. So it’s good to see they’re getting the Semi clocking up real world miles to identify what needs improving. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-semi-anheuser-busch-st-louis-sighting/ TESLA MODEL 3 LONG RANGE MOTORS And third time’s a charm, a triple whammy of Tesla stories this week, and Reuters point out: Tesla’s shift to a magnetic motor using neodymium in its Model 3 Long Range car adds to pressure on already strained supplies. “Some electric car motors use the permanent magnet technology, probably the most famous is the Tesla Model 3 Long Range. All the other Tesla models — Model X and Model 3 standard — use induction motors,” said David Merriman, a senior analyst at metals consultancy Roskill. And whilst many materials which are called rare earth are actually extremely common, when they’re only found in certain parts of the world, they are open to geopolitical affects such as export bans or tariffs. https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-metals-autos-neodymium-analysis/teslas-electric-motor-shift-to-spur-demand-for-rare-earth-neodymium-idUKKCN1GO282?utm_source=applenews FORD URGED TO ELECTRIFY Moving onto Ford, I often wonder about them. The Chairman seems to talk up electric cars, and yet I follow their UK PR chief on twitter and, whilst he comes across as a really nice chap, I’ve often seen him talking down electric cars, which I always thought a little odd. So I never really know where Ford stand on electrification. Currently Ford makes diesel engines in the UK but, with new sales plummeting, used values in steep decline and buyers not wanting to risk buying a diesel only to find it’s working nothing in 3 years time, or even worse they have to pay an extra fee to get out of the their finance deal because the depreciation was faster than predicted by the lender, the future of that factory has been questioned by some. The union Unite yesterday presented a document outlining a strategy for the whole UK automotive industry, which it says supports 800,000 jobs. It asked the government to help the shift to electric vehicles by supporting research and development, training and investment. http://www.bbc.com/news/business-43363539 Thank you for listening today, I hope you've enjoyed it.
