The Brussels Motor Show is making a comeback, returning to Brussels Expo at the end of January 2025. Electric vehicles (EVs) will take pride of place, with innovative models bringing together sustainability, technology, and driving pleasure. For companies looking to make their fleets more sustainable, now is the time to explore new possibilities. In this blog article, you will find an overview of the promising EVs we expect to see at the Motor Show.
What is the Brussels Motor Show?
The Motor Show is an annual event organised by Febiac, in Brussels that offers a broad overview of current and future developments in the automotive industry. At this show, car manufacturers present their latest models and technologies, with a strong focus on innovations. For visitors, the Motor Show is an opportunity to compare different vehicles and their specifications and learn more about trends in mobility. Besides passenger cars and motorbikes, there are also presentations of commercial vehicles, making the event relevant for both individuals and companies.
Why are electric cars interesting for businesses?
Electric cars are the future of mobility, and especially for businesses, they offer many advantages. There are financial benefits : the government offers subsidies and tax breaks, such as increased cost deductibility, making electric vehicles an attractive investment. In addition, electric cars help companies reduce their carbon emissions and thus contribute to sustainability goals-as more and more companies and government organisations value green business practices, this is also good for their reputation.
Operationally, EVs also have advantages. Electric vehicles need less maintenance than petrol/diesel cars, as they do not use engine oil or complex mechanical parts. This can lead to lower maintenance costs and higher reliability for companies that need to rely on their vehicles on a daily basis.
Moreover, with the expansion of the network of charging stations throughout Belgium and the availability of smart charging solutions, it is increasingly easy for companies to efficiently include EVs in their fleets. In short, electric cars offer a future-proof solution for companies looking to cut costs, reduce their carbon footprint and enhance their image as a sustainable business.
