Europcar Australia & New Zealand Sustainability

Fleet efficiency

Europcar's purpose is to offer attractive alternatives to vehicle ownership, in a responsible and sustainable manner. We aim to purchase vehicles with low carbon emissions and our young fleet ensures our vehicles have the latest safety features and technology - CO2 ratings for all of Europcar's passenger vehicles are displayed on our website. By comparing CO2 ratings across vehicle classes, customers are able to make an informed decision - Increased presence of electric and hybrid vehicles on our fleet and promote electric car rental to our customers

Community Relations

Providing renters with the option to reduce their carbon emissions through our partnership with Greenfleet in both Australia and New Zealand. Keeping customers informed on how they can drive in a safe and efficient manner, reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions. Encouraging customers, suppliers and employees to participate in Greenfleet programs, such as tree planting days and other internal initiatives focusing on Sustainability. Europcar Australia and its customers have donated over $615,000 to off-setting carbon emissions from vehicle rental. These funds contribute to Geenfleet’s Forest restoration projects, including the Great Ocean Road Restoration Project, which involved the planting of native trees on 27 hectares around the Great Ocean Road region. The project will result in more than 20,350 tonnes of carbon being captured from the atmosphere as the forests grow. Our employees have personally planted over 2000 trees as part of our long term partnership with Greenfleet.

Increasing Customer Awareness

Starting with the reservation, Europcar lets its customers choose their vehicle on the basis of environmental criteria by providing the CO2 emissions of the models for rental when they select the vehicle on our website. This information is completed by an indicator scored from A to G (similar to an energy rating where “A” has the lowest impact), and a colour coding for clear and quick identification of the vehicles with the lowest emissions. Moreover, at the end of the rental, customers can check the theoretical carbon footprint of their journey on the bill, which is calculated by multiplying the number of kilometers travelled by the average emissions of the vehicle driven. Driven by a desire to reduce CO2 emissions from the use of our cars in circulation, we want to increase customer awareness, throughout the customer’s journey, in order to adopt simple acts that make the difference on their energy bill and for the planet.

Help restore koala habitat along the Great Ocean Road

Greenfleet and Europcar have joined forces to re-build vital habitat for native wildlife along the Great Ocean Road. Europcar's and their customers' contributions are helping to plant native trees along the Great Ocean Road, such as Manna Gums, to restore habitat and food supply for koalas. These trees also provide habitat for many other animals, including the Powerful Owls, echidnas and wallabies. Additionally to providing vital habitat, donating to the Great Ocean Road Restoration Project is helping to sequester carbon from the atmosphere in projects, protect biodiversity, improve water quality and transform the landscape back to its natural state.
