Cost savings based on a real example

The calculation example shows the cost savings of a real, anonymized customer analysis with a fleet of 26 vehicles over a period of one year.

Savings potential 1:

Mileage reduction of top 6 vehicles

  • The 26 fleet vehicles covered a total of 239,458 km p.a.
  • Only 23% of fleet vehicles covered 49% of the total kilometers driven

If the mileage of the top 6 vehicles were reduced to the average mileage of the entire fleet (9'210 km), this would result in potential savings of CHF 40,000 per year.

‍ (Calculation: saved 59,300km x CHF 0.70 mobility costs/km)


Savings potential 2:

Rearrangement of Low-2 vehicles

  • The 26 fleet vehicles covered a total of 239,458 km p.a.
  • 8% of fleet vehicles only covered 2% of the total kilometers driven

If you were able to specifically use these Low-2 vehicles more often and thus achieve higher utilization, more working hours could be billed to customers.


Or the radical solution: reduce the size of the fleet by these 2 rarely used vehicles and thus free up tied up capital.


Conclusion:

  • The one-time costs amount to CHF 79/adapter = CHF 2,054 for all fleet vehicles
  • In addition, there are annual costs of CHF 17/adapter and month = CHF 5,304
  • Total costs in the first year = CHF 7,358, savings potential for 1 + 2 tbd = >CHF 40,000

This results in a positive balance of at least + CHF 32,642.

New year - new e-fleet management?

Many companies want or have already electrified their fleets — but charging often lacks full cost transparency. Our data shows: High price variance and additional charges for public charging make planning and comparability difficult, especially without home charging. Home charging provides a complete, reliable cost picture across all charging locations for the first time.

Home charging explained in a new way: Behavior, costs and the path to fair reimbursement

Home charging is an underrated efficiency and cost lever in e-mobility. Our data shows: It is not the price of electricity, but habits that determine charging behavior — and it is precisely this diversity that makes fair reimbursement demanding. The report shows why flat rates necessarily lead to over and under compensation and how individual, data-based models such as ChargeHome enable real fairness, transparency and cost efficiency for drivers and fleets.
