A few weeks ago, World Electric Vehicle Day was celebrated, an opportune occasion for Geotab, one of the leading telematics companies, to showcase its progress in electrification and fleet management.
Neil Cawse, CEO of Geotab highlighted that electrified cars are playing a key role in reducing the carbon footprint.
He explained that the vehicles can offer significant operational cost savings and increased efficiency. “There is a remarkable transition taking place in the adoption of electric vehicles and companies are experiencing the most success using data intelligence to inform, adjust and drive decisions that impact their business and the planet. It’s really a double bottom line.”
Importance and benefits
Geotab highlights that in recent years there has been a significant transformation in the commercial sector with an increase in the adoption of electric vehicles.
This shift is not only a testament to technological advances, but also to the power of data intelligence. With access to quality commercial vehicle data information, organizations can make more informed decisions on how to successfully integrate electric vehicles into their fleets.

According to Geotab’s ‘Greening the Fleet’ survey, 54% of fleet professionals are adopting electric vehicles. They are witnessing a reduction in fuel usage and CO2 emissions, showing a future driven by informed choices.
69% of those surveyed by the company reported that their fleet’s sustainability data helped reduce operating costs in the last year.
Deepening Information
In its report, Geotab notes that despite the rapid growth of the electric vehicle industry, official reporting standards are still lacking, creating unique data challenges for fleet managers.
Through Geotab’s technology and reverse engineering process, the company offers detailed data insights for more than 300 makes and models of electric vehicles, providing fleet managers with the information needed to make informed decisions for fleet electrification and sustainability goals, such as range, efficiency and vehicle state of charge.
