ON TRACK WITH OUR SUSTAINABILITY AMBITION
Since the Arval Beyond strategic plan launch in 2020, we have striven to integrate sustainability into all facets of our business.
The challenging context characterised by the disrupted energy and semiconductor sectors, and the climate urgency, have reinforced the need to accelerate sustainable mobility more than ever.
Our 2022 year has been marked by new partnerships and creative approaches to tackle these challenges. It has enabled us to develop game-changing mobility solutions and accompany customers, consumers and companies, in their transition. The trust of our partners and customers showcase how our integrated model is unique to drive positive impact.
87,7% of our customers and 85% of our employees have acknowledged our environmental commitments. We are on track to reach our target of 700,000 electrified vehicles, and half of which as battery electric vehicles (BEVs)*, by the end of 2025. We already achieved 300,000 leased units including 90,000 BEVs at the end of 2022.
I can only warmly and sincerely thank all the 8,000 Arval employees who create the conditions for sustainable growth every day and contribute to a better future for all of us.
We remain committed to achieving our ambition and going the extra mile to support the transition of the society towards sustainable mobility.
Our integrated model showcases our uniqueness to drive positive impact as a trusted partner within our ecosystem.
*The 2025 ambition assumes similar or better supporting measures from the relevant governments on battery electric vehicles, as well as charging infrastructures & supporting services being further upgraded.
