Capital Cars is an established Edinburgh taxi private-hire company that provides a range of services from airport transfers to luxury chauffeur trips and exclusive tours of Scotland.
Looking to add to its green fleet of executive vehicles, Capital Cars received asset-based lending via ENABLE Funding delivery partner Simply Asset Finance to buy two electric Tesla Model S P85 vehicles. The Teslas have proved popular with the executive market, but also for special occasions where customers like the idea that they are reducing their carbon footprint.
Capital Cars hopes to buy more electric cars in the future to extend its fleet in line with customer demand.
