E-Training World has introduced new online driver training modules for drivers of electric cars.

Jonathan Mosley, sales and marketing director at E-Training World, said feedback to the training has been exceptional in customer trials

The three modules cover an introduction to electric vehicles, an EV awareness course for general safe driving and a speed awareness course tailored for electric cars.

“We provide online driver profiling and e-driver training systems to leading insurance companies, major driver training providers, contract hire and fleet management specialists, rental companies and directly to fleets large and small,” said Jonathan Mosley, sales and marketing director at the online driver profiling and e-driver training specialist.

“Many of our fleet sector partners benefit from a white-labelled version of our system, enabling them to offer a leading risk management solution to their customers, and with vehicles with electric capability now making up over 50% of new company cars delivered we felt it was the right time to launch a range of EV-specific modules.”

The new modules address topics ranging from general training around the safe driving of an EV, through to whether they can be driven through standing water, their suitability for towing and journey planning to include charging stops.

“Having trialled these modules with some of our key insurance contacts and major customers ahead of their launch, the feedback has been exceptional and we anticipate high demand as an increasing number of drivers take delivery of their first EV.”
