ALD Automotive I LeasePlan Switzerland unveils new global mobility brand
ALD Automotive I LeasePlan Switzerland today unveils Ayvens, its new global mobility brand, which unites the two companies together under a single common identity. The launch of the new mobility brand in Switzerland follows the global acquisition of LeasePlan by ALD Automotive, effected in May 2023.
ALD Automotive AG, founded in 2004 and LeasePlan (Schweiz) AG, founded in 1986 are two main players in the Swiss market and two of the market leaders in Switzerland when it comes to sustainable mobility solutions, including fleet electrification, fleet management and other solutions for corporate mobility. By bringing together complementary capabilities and expertise, the company saw an opportunity to reimagine mobility going forward for the better. This new brand feeds that common purpose by defining the company’s unique position in the market and highlighting what makes it different and the value it brings to customers across all segments. Its new brand promise is to make life flow better by delivering mobility that is simpler, smarter and sustainable.
The combined group Ayvens is positioned to become a leading global sustainable mobility player. With one of the world’s largest multi-brand EV fleet out of a total fleet of 3.3 million vehicles managed worldwide, the company aims to lead the way to net zero and further shape the digital transformation of the industry.
The new unifying brand creates a powerful identity for two highly reputed industry players through:
A new name and a symbol
Ayvens is a memorable, simple yet statutory name which indicates the way forward for progress. It is accompanied by a symbol which represents the legacy companies coming together as one team, working towards a common goal, with a strong, stable foundation at its base and an upwards fluid form symbolizing progress and dynamism. The name is solidly endorsed by its globally renowned majority shareholder, Societe Generale.
A new graphic identity
The graphic identity conveys energy through a friendly, modern font, along with vibrant, unique colours inspired by the natural environment and crafted to stand out in the market. The joyful and dynamic iconography captures the essence of mobility, showcasing it through beautiful moments yet grounded in everyday lives.
A new brand tagline
Better with every move captures the company’s underlining mission to deliver “better” mobility through continuous progress for customers, for businesses and for the planet.
ALD Automotive | LeasePlan appointed Dragon Rouge, a global design agency, to create a mobility brand that would reposition the legacy companies in the mobility industry, beyond the leasing landscape, as a new leader for a better mobility.
“Each day is an opportunity to move better, and we all have a role to play. By joining forces, our company is ready to lead the way to the large-scale adoption of sustainable mobility thanks to our size, coverage, service expertise and commitment to innovation,” confirms Tim Albertsen, Chief Executive Officer of Ayvens group. “The launch of our new brand Ayvens in Switzerland mark an exciting chapter for our company. As a major player in the mobility sector, we will leverage our power of leadership to share the future of mobility and achieve excellence, unlocking new possibilities for our employees, stakeholders, and customers.” pointed out Niklas Zetterlund, Country Managing Director of Ayvens in Switzerland.
