Video Summary
Sharon from Roche shared how her fleet reached 37% electrification, with 61% hybrids remaining and a goal to move them to EVs. Her team began by using a third party to analyze driver mileage, fuel use, territories, home locations, and suitability for BEVs. They found 85% of drivers return home nightly, making home charging viable. Key lessons included understanding vehicle operation, weather impacts, range settings, and preconditioning. She emphasized driver education, noting that BEV adoption required more convincing than expected. Roche uses biweekly BEV/PHEV drop-in calls and chat groups so drivers can learn from each other. She advised fleets not to treat EVs like regular cars, to train drivers directly, and to keep finance and C-suite leaders closely involved. For charging, Roche is exploring shifting charger ownership to drivers for simplicity. Sharon believes electrification is worth it and recommends hands-on exposure, like bringing EVs onsite for test drives.
