Environmental commitment

We are committed to a holistic, global approach to addressing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues - all based on four sustainability pillars. These pillars constitute, in other words, the four-wheel-drive system that powers everything we do.

Ayven leads the charge in delivering low-emission solutions to more customers than ever before. Our goal is for 50% of our new vehicle deliveries to be electric vehicles (EVs) by 2026, with battery EVs (BEVs) alone accounting for 40% (global/corporate target). We are continuously working on developing comprehensive solutions for the entire value chain, which combined with the development of digital tools, will contribute to the low-emission goals.

We are also active contributors in many fields related to climate and transportation issues and are frequently invited to present our work in this area at various seminars and conferences. We collaborate with the Environmental Foundation ZERO on several projects related to transportation and the environment.

We are active advisors to our clients on how to assemble the most suitable vehicle fleet for their business with a strong focus on electric vehicles and charging infrastructure.
