Leading electric vehicle provider WeFlex has joined forces with Sytner Mercedes-Benz London Corporate Sales to meet growing demand from Ride-Hailing drivers for luxury electric vehicles.

With up to 324 miles¹ and 380 miles¹ of range respectively, the Mercedes-Benz EQA SUV and EQE Saloon offer plenty of range for the average Ride-Hailing driver in London. Their sophisticated and comfortable cabins and eye-catching exterior design, help deliver a more business class travel experience for Ride-Hailing customers.

Luxury electric vehicles, such as those from Mercedes-Benz, empower Ride-Hailing drivers to compete for better fares and a corporate executive customer base via a range of apps such as Wheely, Blacklane, Uber and Bolt.

WeFlex now has a fleet in excess of 2,000 cars across a number of brands, with the largest range of quality electric vehicles in the Ride-Hailing industry. It provides flexible finance plans to help Ride-Hailing drivers successfully run their business and own their vehicle, in a way that works for their individual circumstances.

Nicko Williamson, Founder and CEO of WeFlex said: “Mercedes-Benz needs little introduction when it comes to associations with quality design and engineering. Ride-Hailing passengers are increasingly looking for a more luxury experience and drivers want to be able to attract corporate customers – and higher fares. Mercedes-Benz are experts in luxury vehicles – and Sytner has been a brilliant partner in helping get these beautiful electric vehicles onto London’s roads.”

Stephen Hanifan, Corporate Sales Director from Sytner Mercedes-Benz London added: “We are seeing growing demand from across the spectrum and particularly within Ride-Hailing for higher-end vehicles. When you spend your entire working day driving for a living, you can see why the additional comfort, technology and range of the EQA and EQE is highly appealing for drivers – and for their passengers – looking to travel around London in style.”
