Data is core to our lives and businesses, and the mobility industry is not an exception. While there are still some concerns about privacy and digital protection, sharing data between users, public authorities and mobility-related organisations seem to present endless benefits. Open data is key to solve important challenges related to urban planning, road safety, and business efficiency as well as an important driver of seamless mobility experience for users. Combined with V2X application, the usage of digital insights from mobility users and vehicle sensors is getting gradually an indispensable enabler for successful business and sustainable cities of tomorrow.

Arval specialises in full-service vehicle leasing and new sustainable mobility solutions. Thanks to the quality of its customer-centric approach and its visionary and robust strategic plan, Arval Beyond, once again in 2021, Arval excelled compared to the rest of the market. An outstanding performance in view of the challenges associated with the pandemic, the shortage of semi-conductors and a challenging overall context in the automotive sector.

As 2022 begins, Arval Mobility Observatory is pleased to share with you a synthesis of changes to statutory taxation and the associated mechanisms evolutions in Europe, by country. As follows, you will find a non-exhaustive list highlighting the evolution of Governmental taxation, grants and bonus schemes for 2022 in some European countries (such as Belgium, Germany, Italy, Austria, Finland, Norway, Spain, the Netherlands and France) and the U.K.

Arval launches a new campaign to support customers in four key areas:
- Anticipating renewals and fleet extensions,
- Adapting sourcing strategies including diversifying OEM panel,
- Introducing connected services to help offset TCO increases,
- Accelerate energy transition plans

Arval Consulting has published a white paper containing an overview of the current Automotive Market Shift and a range of solutions to help fleet managers, presenting four key strategies to initiate today.

It is billed as “the most influential tech event in the world” and 2022’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) – held this month in Las Vegas – certainly contained much thought-provoking news for anyone invested in the shape of corporate mobility to come.
The key areas of interest were perhaps unsurprising - electric vehicles, autonomous technology, connected cars and smart mobility - but what is breathtaking is the rate of progress being seen. All of these ideas are rapidly making their way into everyday use.

As the first element in Russian scientist Mendeleev’s periodic table and, thus, the lightest element in the universe, hydrogen has recently attracted an incredible amount of interest relating to the energy transition.

But how can this element help to combat global warming and air pollution? In its new ebook, the Arval Mobility Observatory aims to give an overview of the latest developments
in this technological sector and to provide insight into why hydrogen, depending on how it is produced, can offer a solution for the future.

These “14 questions” are not intended to provide a definitive response to this issue, but rather to outline current trends and highlight the major players involved.
At a time when initiatives in this field are increasing due to plans for massive investment on both sides of Europe, the aim is also to identify projects that may eventually result in this gas being used as either a fuel or a renewable energy source.

The transition to sustainable mobility is a major issue for companies, particularly because they require the tools to organise and optimise these new forms of mobility. To help overcome this challenge, Arval and Ridecell have joined forces to offer their clients a tailor-made platform which provides access to various multimodal, shared and integrated mobility solutions. Their aim is to support companies in managing this change.
