In fact, the company has decided to confirm investments in an increasingly young, low-emission fleet: in the coming months, <strong>one out of every four vehicles<\/strong> will be powered by hybrid\/electric motorization, guaranteeing annual savings of more than<strong> 3,227 tons of CO 2 .<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"wp-block-wrapper wp-block-core-paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Locauto&#8217;s green strategy does not stop exclusively at an increasingly efficient and clean fleet, but continues with the dissemination of good practices to raise awareness of environmental sustainability among customers, employees and stakeholders, focusing first and foremost on the urgency of reducing emissions of inert gases harmful to the environment: among the actions taken, the Locauto Group had decided to eliminate the consumption of single-use plastic in its offices in Milan, Cardano al Campo (VA), Trento, Rome and Palermo and to minimize paper documentation by digitizing the entire rental process.  <\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"wp-block-wrapper wp-block-core-paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I have always thought that it is important to seize all the opportunities that present themselves to us, today more than yesterday,&#8221; comments <strong>Locauto Vice President and CEO Raffaella Tavazza<\/strong>, &#8220;contributing to the collective well-being with particular attention to the future of the new generations.
