| Iberdrola and Peugeot to foster electric mobility in Spain Iberdrola, via its subsidiary Servicios Energéticos, and Peugeot España inked a partnership agreement aimed at fostering the progressive roll-out of electric mobility in Spain. The agreement, which can currently be extended annually, establishes a framework for collaboration which includes the recommendation of each party's current products and services in the field of electric mobility. Thus, Iberdrola will encourage its customers to choose Peugeot vehicles, while the carmaker will recommend the Iberdrola Green Mobility initiative, a comprehensive commercial package encompassing the electric vehicle, the installation of recharging stations, financing and the provision of a 100% renewable energy supply. Peugeot currently offers the Peugeot iOn, the first latest-generation electric vehicle launched in Europe. Silent and agile and featuring an efficient electric motor with a maximum output of 49 kW (66 cv), this compact 3.48-metre four-seater urban car is smooth and easy to handle and offers a high level of comfort and safety. Practical and lively, it benefits from its excellent "capacity/size" ratio and unrivalled handling. Thanks to the energy management of its lithium-ion battery, the Peugeot iOn's range as per the European standard cycle is 150 km. 100% electric, 100% real, the iOn is Peugeot's response to the needs of urban mobility and is now available from Peugeot's network of dealerships. The Peugeot Partner will soon be added to the company's electric vehicle offer. Under the terms of the agreement, Peugeot and Iberdrola will also explore opportunities to jointly exploit the commercial opportunities that may arise from their respective customer portfolios and will periodically organise technological exchange meetings where they will discuss the technical requirements of the carmaker's electric vehicles and Iberdrola's recharging stations to ensure full compatibility. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
