SEAT Ecomotives Appeal To Ethical Travellers

An award-winning ethical travel company has added a dozen SEAT Ecomotive models to its UK vehicle fleet which shows the company’s commitment to the environment.

Camps International, has taken delivery of 11 Leon E Ecomotive models and one Ibiza E Ecomtive. The company offers a range of gap year volunteering experiences and school expeditions at locations across East Africa, Latin America and South East Asia.

The Hampshire-based company’s sales team will use these ultra-economical, low-emission vehicles to travel to schools and colleges the length and breadth of Britain, liaising with young people and organisations interested in all manner of life-changing travel options.

By Camps International using these stylish new additions, they will slash its fuel costs as well as making significant savings on tax as a result of the cars’ impressive environmental credentials.

Camps International Group Financial Controller, Carl Palmer, said: ‘We were looking at all the options, but the SEAT Ecomotive range ticked all the boxes for us.

‘We’re a carbon-neutral company and we take our responsibility to the environment very seriously which is why it was very important that we opted for a clean car with low emissions. But we were also incredibly impressed with the fuel economy of the Ibiza and Leon Ecomotives, and the savings we could make by running them.

‘We were also offered a terrific deal by the local dealer, Snows SEAT, and, having worked with the dealership before, we knew they’d give us a great service.’

SEAT’s Leon and Ibiza E Ecomotive models are the ideal choice for fleet operators like Camps International, with their blend of comfort, style, practicality and ecomony.

The Leon boasts a state-of-the-art common rail turbodiesel engine, Brake Energy Recovery technology, Start/Stop system and enhanced aerodynamics, which gives the Leon an impressive combined cycle economy figure of 74.3 mpg. While the Ibiza E Ecomotive employs the same technology to give a fuel economy figure of 80.7 mpg…. AND, both models are exempt from road tax.

Sally Livingstone-Dennis, SEAT UK National Fleet Sales Manager, said; ‘SEAT’s range of Ecomotive models are proving increasingly popular with business car users, fleet operators and private motorists. And it’s easy to see why.

‘All the models in the range offer exceptional fuel economy which is a crucial consideration given that fuel costs always seem to be rising. But, despite this economy, Ecomotive drivers sacrifice nothing in terms of comfort, convenience or driving enjoyment.

‘In addition, given that the models boast such low emissions, they are the perfect choice for responsible and ethical businesses such as Camps International.’
