Priced at £500 including VAT, the POD Point “Solo” charging system is offered at a preferential rate for Lex Autolease customers and includes supply, installation and free online accounts to allow fleets to monitor the electricity usage of their vehicles. The system also shows CO2 emissions and allows individual employee expenses to be generated automatically.

POD Point’s “Twin Charge” post, which is designed for workplaces only and offers multiple charging outlets, is also available on the scheme, subject to a site survey and installation type.

Chris Chandler, principal consultant at Lex Autolease, said: ‘With the fleet industry becoming increasingly open to adopting cleaner technology vehicles, we have seen a rise in the number of our customers that are committing to plug-in EVs, range extender EVs and plug-in hybrids.

‘Through our strong relationship with POD Point, we were able to provide our customers with a highly cost competitive deal, providing excellent value for money, which we are confident will make it easier for our customers to go electric.’

Rob Walden, head of operations at POD Point, added: ‘Lex Autolease’s pedigree in the fleet industry is unrivalled and this made the decision to partner with them extremely easy. The exclusive arrangement will provide its customers with a high quality service, which includes advice and guidance as well as the supply and installation of the appropriate charging unit at home or the office. Importantly, this is our most competitively priced package available today.’
