Businesses in Camden offered electric vehicle trials

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 28, 2011 -- Businesses in Camden have been offered free trials of electric vehicles to see if they make sense for their company, and the initiative has been launched by comedienne and Camden resident Victoria Wood.

In partnership with electric vehicle manufacturers, Camden Council is offering local businesses free two-week electric vehicle trials to encourage more companies to consider zero emission cars or vans.

One of the main barriers to the uptake of EVs is a lack of willingness to invest in new technologies without seeing the benefits first hand. The trials give businesses the chance to find out for themselves that electric vehicles are ideal for inner London.

Vehicles currently available are the Nissan LEAF, Tata Ace EV Mini Truck, Mitsubishi i-MiEV and Renault Kangoo Van ZE, with more vehicles due to be added as they become available.

To launch the project for Camden, comedienne and Camden resident Victoria Wood tested out an electric Nissan LEAF. Meanwhile other Camden celebrities - author Ben Elton and actor Derek Jacobi – have also shown their support for the trials.
