About 20 MG ZS EV SUVs will be distributed to Downer NZ’s vehicle fleet, with another 20 on order.
“We chose the MG ZS electric SUV as it takes just 45 minutes to charge to 80% on rapid charge and allows for up to 260km of travel per single full charge,” Downer NZ says.
“These vehicles provide our staff with the advantages of a zero-emissions vehicle in a cost-effective way that does not compromise on practicality. This is essential in an integrated services business.”
Downer NZ adds that it’s proud to be a part of the transition to a low-carbon economy.
“As we work towards these goals, one of the key steps is the inclusion of 100% electric vehicles in our current fleet.”
The EVs are part of its light vehicle replacement plan.
“Be sure to look out for the Downer MGs on the road across the country,” it says.
Downer designs, builds and sustains assets, infrastructure and facilities and is a leading provider of integrated services in Australia and New Zealand.
Downer Group employs about 50,000 people across more than 300 sites, mainly in Australia and New Zealand.
