Diving Into The Electric Revolution: How Data Analytics Is Redefining Fleets
Amid growing environmental concerns, the transportation sector, historically known for its heavy carbon emissions, is at the forefront of the electric revolution. With the expansion of electric vehicles (EVs) in the global market, Brazil is witnessing a positive trend, evidenced by the impressive number of 100,000 EVs sold in 2022. The key to this transformation? Data intelligence.
The Data Behind Electrification
The electrification of the transportation sector is not just a technological response to the climate challenge, but is largely driven by the ability to analyze and interpret data. Having access to detailed insights about commercial fleets allows organizations to make informed choices about integrating EVs from different brands into their operations.
Neil Cawse, at the helm of Geotab, highlights the essence of this transformation. “EVs are becoming the protagonists in the journey to reduce the carbon footprint. The strategic use of data intelligence is a valuable tool for companies to adapt to this change efficiently.”

Toyota launches “family hybrid van” with 7 or 8 seats, 1.8 hybrid engine, fuel consumption of up to 23.8 km/l, and a price equivalent to about R$ 104,000 without taxes, below the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid sold in Brazil: meet the Noah Hybrid 2026 in Japan.
Tangible Impact Through Data Intelligence
Data shows the power of electrification. Geotab’s study “Greening the Fleet” reveals that 54% of fleet managers are embracing EVs, driven by reductions in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Surprisingly, 69% of respondents confirmed that data helped cut operational costs in the past year.
Success stories are emerging from different corners of the world. In the UK, Milk & More exemplifies the benefits of electrification, having saved 1.8 million liters of diesel and reduced 4,920 tons of CO2. In Spain, the collaboration between Telefónica Tech, Geotab, and Vecttor resulted in significant monthly fuel savings.
Unlocking Electric Vehicle Data
In the EV arena, access to standardized data is still a challenge. Geotab, through its innovative approach, provides comprehensive information on over 300 brands and models. This empowers fleet managers to craft electrification strategies aligned with sustainability goals.
Confronting Obstacles with Data Analysis
Geotab’s EV range analysis is an asset, based on over 3 million trips. This in-depth investigation aims to demystify the myths associated with EV technology, promoting confidence and optimized strategies.
Electrification is more than a trend; it is the future of the transportation sector. With the support of data intelligence, the transition to EVs is becoming a tangible and promising reality.
