•High specification examples perfectly suited to chauffeuring role

Audi UK and Addison Lee Group announce a new partnership that will commence with the deployment of five brand new Audi e-tron chauffeur cars onto the global ground transportation business' fleet from today, May 21. As part of the Addison Lee Group's industry-leading strategy to help reduce emissions in the long term, the zero local emissions Audi vehicles will be used to transport 'roadshow' clients with access to a dedicated corporate chauffeur service in and around London, for a six-month pilot period.

The pilot will enable customers to experience the latest innovation in the high-end EV segment, first hand. Finished in discreet Mythos black metallic paint, each of the five e-tron variants has been individually specified to deliver the most luxurious experience for passengers, with a host of touches that optimise comfort and convenience including four-zone electronic climate control, privacy glass, acoustic glazing and soft-closing doors.

Commenting on the partnership, Director of Audi UK Andrew Doyle said: 'The e-tron is the perfect catalyst for the transition into electrification for a global ground transportation business like Addison Lee Group – its incredible refinement and performance suggest that it is something out of the ordinary, but in terms of usability, quality, design and engineering it will be a home-from-home for anyone familiar with a modern day Audi. I am confident that it will slot seamlessly into the chauffeur transport role for drivers and passengers alike.'

Andy Boland, CEO of Addison Lee Group, said: 'Our partnership with Audi combines two premium brands in making a significant step towards next-generation, sustainable mobility solutions, and continues to position Addison Lee Group at the forefront of innovation in ground transportation services.

'We are delighted to join forces with such a progressive automotive manufacturer and a brand that resonates with our business. This pilot demonstrates the power of combining two large scale, established and premium brands to make a significant and positive impact on cities and air quality, over and above individual initiatives at a local level. Following our achievement of ULEZ compliance for the whole Addison Lee Group fleet, this is the next major step on the road to achieving a 100% low emissions fleet.'

The premium Audi e-tron SUV is ideally suited to chauffeuring duties. Its all-electric underpinnings facilitate near-silent running, while capacious rear legroom and class-leading luggage capacity ensure maximum comfort during every journey, from short office excursions to airport runs. Standard adaptive air suspension also smooths out the creases of Central London's carriageways for a cosseting ride that allows passengers to fully relax and unwind.
