Pod Point signs three-year deal with Pendragon Vehicle Management

Pod Point will become Pendragon Vehicle Management’s preferred EV home charge point supplier as part of a new three-year deal.

A division of Pendragon PLC, one of the world’s leading automotive retailers, and a UK top 20 leasing business, PVM offers fleet funding, fleet management and rental options, and has a fleet size of almost 13,000 vehicles.

All home charger installations are conducted by Pod Point’s expert installers. Once the EV has been ordered through PVM, Pod Point will carry out the consultation, delivery, installation, and activation of the home charger liaising directly with PVM’s EV leasing customers.

Neal Francis, Managing Director at PVM said: “We are seeing increasing demand for our BEV fleet and expect to see this trend throughout 2022 and beyond. The salary sacrifice scheme continues to offer an attractive option for drivers looking to make the transition. As our first chargepoint partnership, we wanted to work with a trusted brand and chose Pod Point because of its reputation for excellent customer service, as well as its reliable and easy to use network.”

Commenting on the partnership, Erik Fairbairn, CEO of Pod Point said: “Pendragon Vehicle Management has a long standing reputation and has been helping UK businesses reduce the cost and burden of operating their fleets for over three decades. We’re thrilled to be working with them as a preferred chargepoint supplier.”

Pendragon customers will also benefit from our extensive public charging network of over 7,300 charging bays. The network is one of the largest and most used in the UK, with around half of our public network free to use.

The partnership also supports PVM’s commitment to social responsibility in assisting new and existing customers to make the transition to electric to help reduce carbon footprint.
