. fleet renewal<\/strong> is an essential strategy for companies looking to reduce costs, increase efficiency and, above all, contribute to the environment. Replacing old vehicles with more modern models is not just an operational decision, but also an important step towards a more sustainable world.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is fleet renewal strategic for companies?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

. fleet renewal<\/strong> has a direct impact on productivity, reducing maintenance costs and fuel consumption. What's more, it's an effective way of fostering a commitment to sustainability in the eyes of society and our customers, who are increasingly aware of sustainable practices. Transport companies, for example, can renew their buses, trucks and cars with a view not only to performance, but also to reducing environmental impact.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Ve\u00edculos<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How do old vehicles affect the environment?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Maintaining an ageing fleet brings with it a host of environmental problems: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • CO\u2082 emissions: older vehicles pollute more, emitting more greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide;\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • High fuel consumption: outdated engines are less efficient and consume more fuel;\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Parts and fluids: broken parts that can come loose and leaking fluids can contaminate soil and water;\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Constant maintenance: Old fleets require frequent maintenance, which increases waste generation.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Sustainable alternatives for fleet renewal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    When carrying out the fleet renewal<\/strong>You can opt for more sustainable solutions:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Velectric and hybrid vehicles<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Electric vehicles don't emit polluting gases while driving and are ideal for urban routes, such as school buses, delivery cars or corporate vehicles. Hybrid vehicles also emit gases, but to a lesser extent, as they combine an electric motor and a combustion engine, ensuring greater energy efficiency and less environmental impact.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Euro 6 technology<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Replacing vehicles with Euro 5 technology with Euro 6 models aims to meet stricter emissions standards, reducing the release of nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur oxides (SOx), particulate matter (PM) and greenhouse gases (GHG) by reducing fuel consumption per kilometer traveled.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Biofuels and alternative fuels<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Ethanol, biodiesel and natural gases such as biomethane are viable options for trucks and buses, helping to reduce emissions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Fleet management with intelligent routes<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    With the use of technology, it is possible to optimize journeys and avoid unnecessary travel, saving fuel and reducing the carbon footprint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Success story: fleet renewal at VAMOS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    . LET'S GO<\/strong>, one of Simpar's companies, is a leader in the national market for leasing heavy vehicles, machinery and equipment. It acts strategically in fleet renewal, always seeking to add value to its customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The strategy of modernizing and renewing the company's fleet LET'S GO <\/strong>is multifaceted and includes: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Modern, up-to-date fleet:<\/strong> the company operates with a fleet of trucks with an average age of just 2.6 years. This modernization generates positive social and economic impacts, ensuring safer operations and reducing pollutant emissions. The total fleet of rental assets is 51,604 units, of which 40,464 are trucks and implements, and 11,140 are machines and equipment.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Always New\" product:<\/strong> launched in June 2024, \"Sempre Novo\" offers used vehicles in an excellent state of maintenance and repair for lease or sale. The solution is aimed at customers who don't need a zero-kilometer truck, providing an advantageous alternative at a lower cost. In 2024 alone, more than R$ 350 million in assets were leased through this product.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Electrification of the fleet:<\/strong> a LET'S GO <\/strong>is a leader in forklift electrification and has more than 200 electric trucks in its fleet, mainly serving the beverage and e-commerce sectors. Currently, 8% of leased assets are electric, including trucks, SUVs and forklifts, which has resulted in the reduction of more than 78,000 tons of carbon. The company also offers trucks that can run on biomethane.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • VAMOS Zero Carbon Program:<\/strong> this initiative offers clients the chance to offset the emissions generated by leased assets, contributing to the transition to a low-carbon economy. In 2024, more than 9,000 tons of carbon were neutralized through the program. The LET'S GO <\/strong>offsets 100% of its scope 1 and 2 emissions every year.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Continuous fleet renewal:<\/strong> the company is maintaining a robust investment plan to replace vehicles with Euro 5 technology with Euro 6 models.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Recognition in sustainability:<\/strong> VAMOS' commitment to sustainability is recognized by its presence on the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) and by the raising of its CDP Climate Change score to A- in 2024.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      In short, the renewal of the LET'S GO <\/strong>is based not only on the age of the vehicles, but also on strategic investments in electric vehicles and carbon offset programs. All this with the aim of promoting sustainability and reducing the environmental impact of its operations and those of its customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
