\n Greencore Homes has launched the initiative at its eco-friendly housing development The Canopies, located at Milton Heights in Abingdon.\n<\/p>\n
\n The scheme gives residents access to a shared electric vehicle through an on-site mobility hub.\n<\/p>\n
\n Jan Simmonds, founder of Zimbl, said: “We are delighted to partner with Greencore Homes on our first collaboration with a housing developer.\n<\/p>\n
\n “The Canopies is an ideal setting for our Z-Base Mobility Hub, combining sustainable homes with convenient access to shared electric transport.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Giving residents access to a vehicle when they need one can reduce the cost and environmental impact of individual car ownership, while our induction and support will help users feel confident making the switch to electric driving.\n<\/p>\n
\n “We hope this partnership will demonstrate how shared mobility can become a practical and valuable part of sustainable communities.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Residents will have access to a Zimbl MG-5 electric car, with additional EV charging facilities for communal use.\n<\/p>\n
\n An induction is required before using the vehicle, with residents able to choose between in-person or online sessions.\n<\/p>\n
\n The induction includes guidance on how to adjust to its speed, together with charging myths and energy usage.\n<\/p>\n
\n Zimbl also offers its Z-Confident accreditation, to ensure complete safety and driving confidence.\n<\/p>\n
\n Rodger Shipway, head of sales and marketing at Greencore Homes, said: “At Greencore Homes, we always strive to stay ahead of the curve by championing innovation that delivers meaningful change.\n<\/p>\n
\n “With sustainability at the heart of everything we do, we’re partnering with Zimbl to make shared electric mobility more accessible for our homeowners.\n<\/p>\n
\n “As the UK works towards achieving Net Zero by 2050, it’s vital that communities have access to the infrastructure needed to support more sustainable lifestyles.\n<\/p>\n
\n “By introducing a shared electric vehicle to our development, we are further helping residents reduce their environmental impact and are offering sustainable alternatives.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The Canopies is a 27-home development built to Passivhaus standards, featuring high levels of insulation, airtight construction and mechanical heat recovery ventilation to ensure energy efficiency and comfort.\n<\/p>\n
\n Homes are available for private sale from \u00a3404,950, with additional options including Shared Ownership or First Home houses and apartments, due for release later in the year.\n<\/p>\n
\n Greencore Homes has said that the partnership aligns with its long-term vision of fostering sustainable communities through innovative design and local collaboration.\n<\/p>\n
\n The Zimbl partnership is the first of its kind for both organisations and supports the UK\u2019s 2030 target to phase out new petrol and diesel vehicles in favour of cleaner transport solutions.\n<\/p>\n
