Fleet electrification

Our team can help you create a bespoke EV transition roadmap

Driving towards a more sustainable future

The future of fleets is electric — and it’s closer than you think. With rising fuel costs, stricter emissions targets, and growing customer expectations, making the move to EVs isn’t just about sustainability. It’s about staying ahead, cutting costs, and building a smarter, more resilient fleet. At Custom Fleet, we don’t just talk about the future. We help you get there.

Upgrade with confidence and keep your fleet future ready

Get started now

EV adoption is growing rapidly across Australia and New Zealand. While uptake has slowed compared to 2024 (when direct government incentives were strongest), momentum remains strong — and organisations that move early are reaping the benefits.

The Australian Government’s FBT exemption for eligible EVs is accelerating adoption, particularly for businesses offering salary sacrifice programs. This makes transitioning to EVs more cost-effective and attractive than ever before.

Every day you wait is another day of higher fuel bills, more carbon emissions, and missed opportunities to build a future-ready fleet.

AU Sustainable Fleet Transitions - Getting started

What electrifying your fleet offers you

Switching to electric vehicles offers measurable gains for your organisation:

Lower running costs — reduced fuel and maintenance spend compared to ICE vehicles
Tax advantages — maximise savings with FBT exemptions and other salary sacrifice incentives
Sustainability impact — align your fleet with corporate ESG targets and stakeholder expectations
Stronger brand reputation — demonstrate leadership in sustainability to customers and the market

Challenges & considerations

Like any major transition, EV adoption isn’t without its hurdles. Businesses must account for:

Charging infrastructure gaps — particularly in regional and remote areas
Residual value concerns — as EV technology evolves and resale markets mature
Operational change management — ensuring drivers are confident, trained, and supported with the right tools and policies

At Custom Fleet, we help you navigate these challenges. From site audits and infrastructure planning to ongoing driver support, we make the journey as smooth and risk-free as possible.

Our EV transition roadmap

Electrifying your fleet can feel complex, but we make it simple. Our roadmap breaks the journey into clear, achievable steps:

Assess & analyse

We dig into your fleet data — telematics, trip logs, and utilisation — to uncover where EVs make the most sense. No data? No problem. We’ll work with what you've got to map out quick wins and long-term opportunities.

Build a tailored plan

Together, we create a phased transition strategy that balances cost, compliance, and driver needs. From pilot programs to full rollouts, we’ll design a plan that’s ambitious but achievable.

Enable & equip

EVs are only part of the story. We’ll help with everything else: charging infrastructure, driver training, safety policies, and emissions reporting. It’s end-to-end support so you can hit the road with confidence.

Implement & optimise

Once your EVs are on the road, we stay by your side. We monitor performance, identify opportunities for improvement, and ensure your fleet keeps delivering maximum value.
