Goals
Through this agreement, ALD Automotive is pursuing its goal of having 30% of its new car deliveries be plug-in battery electric vehicles.
Being a company with presence in 43 countries where it manages more than one million vehicles through three types of products: Renting and Operational Leasing (75%) and Fleet Management (25%), it will be able to supply its customers with electric vehicles with charger and energy payment system managed through JuiceNet Manager, an application developed by Enel X Way, dedicated to efficient load management.
In this regard, Jean Paul Zalaquett, General Manager of Enel X Way Chile, assured that they will continue to promote the development and deployment of electromobility, from a sustainable and accessible perspective for all.
“Strategic alliances such as the one recently signed with ALD Automotive, the largest in Latin America, allow the sale and installation of chargers to ALD customers throughout Latin America where it is present”, he added.
Zalaquett explained that this smart charging technology will benefit both ALD and Enel X Way customers, which ultimately translates into more people, households and companies being able to approach electromobility for their daily lives.
For his part, Sergio Lecue, International Accounts Director in Latin America stated that they seek to have greater consulting and service to their customers in terms of the electric fleet.
“Through alliances such as this one with Enel X Way, and with our ALD Electric product, we help our customers in the electric transition. In this way we also promote sustainable mobility and the reduction of the carbon footprint,” he said.
