Therefore, as a key objective for the future, many car brands have in their sights the inclusion of electric systems in some of their models. Elon Musk, creator of the electric car brand Tesla, is, since 2021, the richest person on the planet. Thus, it is undeniable that the mobility and transport sector must focus on electric cars, a sector that is not only lucrative but also sustainable!

On the other hand, today, many of us still have in mind that, although we would like to access an electric vehicle or fleet for our company, the prices are not competitive compared to the cost of vehicles powered by other types of fuels. But , be careful! There may be an option that you have not yet considered .
