Avidity Group has added 60 Hyundai Kona Electric SUVs to its operations, supporting plans for a fully electric fleet by the end of 2030.

The group, whose companies include McCurrach, Standout, Zing, Wave and Thumbprint, has deployed the electric SUVs for its field teams as a key part of its sustainability strategy. The move also aligns with the eco agenda for one of its key clients.

Elaine Angelidis, fleet manager at Avidity Group, said: “Our commitment to achieving a 100% EV fleet by 2030 is central to our environmental strategy, and the Hyundai Konda Electric provides the perfect solution for our field teams. The vehicle’s impressive range, reliability and efficiency mean our colleagues have no learning curve or complications with a switch to EV, plus this deployment enables us to support our clients’ own green initiatives at the same time.”

Tim White, head of fleet at Hyundai Motor UK, added: “This agreement with Avidity Group highlights Hyundai Motor UK’s ongoing success in fleet supply arrangements, driven by the growing demand across the country for the company’s low emissions vehicles.

“The Hyundai Konda Electric stands out as an ideal solution for businesses seeking reliable, efficient and sustainable transportation for their field teams. This partnership not only supports current operational needs but also lays a strong foundation for future fleet expansion as Avidity Group plans to add more vehicles.”

The Kona Electric offers a WLTP driving range of up to 319 miles while also combining distinctive design language with latest safety features, comprehensive connectivity options and Hyundai’s Five-Year Unlimited Mileage Warranty package.

Hyundai is also simplifying EV ownership with solutions such as Charge MyHyundai, offering seamless access to thousands of public charging points across Europe with a single account, and Plug & Charge technology, enabling automatic authentication and payment at compatible station, eliminating the need for cards and apps.
