UK Ikeas Get Hybrid Fleet
The British chapter of furniture maven Ikea is changing over their entire UK fleet of vehicles to hybrids next year. All their Skoda cars will be replaced with Honda Civics.
Changing over the British fleet is part of a “go green” pilot project and if it is successful, hybrid fleets could be implemented in other countries in time for 08/09. Ikea wants to reduce their carbon emissions by 9% by the year 2010.
Monsters and Critics writes
The changeover will make Ikea Britain`s first large private-sector company to move its company passenger-car fleet to more eco-friendly vehicles. The change doesn’t affect Ikea delivery vehicles in Britain.
Ikea isn’t without incentives for this green initiative. Low emission vehicles pay a lower road tax in Britain and are completely exempt from fees in London.
