KPMG’s Fleet Transition (Oct 2025) outlines how falling EV total cost of ownership, wider vehicle availability, supportive tax policy, and rising customer expectations are making zero-emission fleets viable across many car and light commercial use cases, while MCVs and HGVs remain earlier in the journey. The report stresses starting with targeted pilots to test vehicles, routes, duty cycles, charging, and economics, then scaling to an enterprise-wide transformation. Key challenges include grid connections, charging access, evolving taxation, workforce skills, and data integration. KPMG proposes an 8-step framework spanning strategy, vehicles, infrastructure, operations, energy supply, technology/data, financing, and organization, supported by robust monitoring, cost comparison vs. BAU, and governance. Success depends on coordinated planning across energy, finance, tax, technology, and people—not 1-for-1 fleet replacement.
