ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CHPT), a leading electric vehicle (EV) charging network, and Arval, a leader in full-service vehicle leasing and new mobility solutions and a company of the BNP Paribas Group, today announced the signing of an international framework agreement aimed at accelerating the transition to e-mobility for international corporate clients, small and medium companies, and private individuals.

Arval and Element Fleet Management, through their Element-Arval Global Alliance, today announced that SIXT Mega Rent has become a new member of the world-spanning fleet management network, the longest standing strategic alliance in the fleet management and leasing industry for the benefit of clients with global needs. To date, partners of the Alliance manage more than 4 million vehicles under management and now operate in 55 countries across five continents.

Despite challenging environment and auto sector, Arval continued to grow in 2022, maintaining the positive momentum of previous years.

Arval, a global leader in full service vehicle leasing and new sustainable mobility solutions, announces two new appointments: Dan Boiangiu as General Manager of Arval Belgium, and Julie Meynard as Director of the Arval International Business Office (IBO). This, follows Laurent Loncke’s nomination as the new General Manager of BNP Paribas Fortis Retail Banking.

In 2022, Arval’s performance significantly outgrew the market despite a challenging environment and automotive sector.

Lightyear – the Dutch high-tech company producing the world’s first solar-powered electric car, Lightyear 0, – has signed a pre-order agreement with Arval, Europe’s #1 full service multibrand vehicle leasing company, and key player in sustainable mobility solutions owned by the BNP Paribas Group. The pre-order entails 10,000 units of Lightyear 2, Lightyear’s accessible mass-market model. With that, the company has a new go-to mobility partner for corporate clients and consumers to experience solar-electric mobility in Arval’s key markets in Europe. The grand total of Lightyear 2 pre-orders from B2B partners now exceeds 21,000 units, corresponding to a revenue of nearly €840 million. This news comes one week after Lightyear has opened the Lightyear 2 waitlist for consumers to get priority in the pre-order process later this year.

Arval, part of BNP Paribas Group, announces the completion of the acquisition of Terberg Business Lease Group B.V. (TBLG) in the Netherlands and Belgium by its Dutch subsidiary Arval B.V. (Arval), which was announced earlier this year. Arval acquires 100% of the shares from its shareholders Royal Terberg Group and AutoBinck Group.

Arval appoints Andrea Falcone as General Manager of Arval in the Netherlands, as of December 1st 2022.

Arval announces Karen Brunot as Arval Chief Sustainability Officer and Julie Meynard as Arval Consulting & Arval Mobility Observatory Director.
