Mitie’s 250th electric vehicle delivered to Heathrow Airport

Mitie’s 250th electric vehicle – a Nissan e-NV200 van – is on the roads at Heathrow, supporting the airport’s goal to establish an airside ultra-low emissions zone by 2025 and become a zero-carbon airport. The van joins the 200 electric cars and 49 electric vans already part of the Mitie fleet – 17 of which are based at the Airport. Charge point infrastructure and model availability continue to be biggest barriers to electric vehicle rollout.
