Zipcar is rolling out a fleet of 300 Volkswagen e-Golfs in London this year — in what the company is touting as the largest rollout of electric cars in a single English city. Boston-based company Zipcar is to undertake the biggest rollout of electric vehicles (EVs) in any UK city by a car-sharing firm, with the deployment of 300 Volkswagen e-Golfs in London. The EVs will start to appear during the summer, with the fleet expected to grow to 325 cars by the end of 2018. In an interview with BBC News, co-founder and CEO Dirk Ahlborn said that he was “very excited” about the new service.
