Addison Lee has acquired Climate Cars, a London-based eco-friendly car service, which has a fleet of 115 hybrid cars.
The acquisition follows the launch of Addison Lee Eco in February 2015, which added 350 hybrid vehicles to the Addison Lee fleet.
Climate Cars’ petrol hybrid cars will join Addison Lee’s existing fleet of 4,800 vehicles and will sit alongside Addison Lee’s corporate, VIP and international divisions.
Climate Cars, which was formed in 2007 and has more than 650 customers throughout Greater London, is Addison Lee’s second acquisition within the last month, following the purchase of Camden-based Cyclone VIP Cars & Couriers.
Liam Griffin, chief executive officer of Addison Lee, said: “We are very pleased to announce Addison Lee’s acquisition of Climate Cars. This deal will boost our Add Lee Eco offering, providing more variety for our passengers but with the same best-in-class experience they expect. This comes in addition to the upgrades we’ve made to our App, the 4G Wi-Fi we’ve implemented into our vehicles and the new customer loyalty scheme we’ve just launched. All of which are designed to enhance the Addison Lee passenger service even further.”
Nicko Williamson, founder of Climate Cars, said:“We are delighted with the deal with Addison Lee. Their AddLee Eco service is in line with our original goal for Climate Cars, to push for mainstream adoption of hybrid and electric cars in the private hire sector.”
