Originally from the vibrant state of New Jersey, Vickens Moscova has been deeply entrenched in the car rental industry since 2008. Over the past 15 years, he has accrued a wealth of experience and keen insights, all while witnessing the industry undergo significant transformations.

However, Moscova’s journey with his car rental company, a subsidiary of Moscova Enterprises, INC., truly began in 2017. This was fueled with determination to create a unique and sustainable experience in the car rental industry. 

Before embracing electric vehicles (EVs), Moscova’s fleet predominantly consisted of secondhand gas-powered and hybrid automobiles. These vehicles had served their purpose but came with their own set of challenges. Sourcing new and efficient vehicles proved to be a hurdle, along with others such as substantial costs to maintain their used cars. While these gas-powered vehicles didn’t require ongoing payments in terms of fuel, they lacked the environmental and economic benefits that EVs provided. 

“Our journey with EVs has been a promising one,” says Moscova. “We began with one EV and gradually expanded our electric fleet.”

Moscova also expressed that the overall transition to EVs was relatively smooth. After all, at their core, EVs are still automobiles. However, their main challenge lay in establishing an efficient home charging infrastructure for these vehicles, a crucial element in the transition to an all-EV fleet.

In 2022, Moscova’s company partnered with Spring Free EV, a move that he describes as exceptionally positive. Explaining that this positivity was deeply rooted in their shared vision, which is committed to providing eco-friendly EVs for the rental car sector while simultaneously changing the preferences of environmentally-conscious consumers.

“I chose Spring Free EV for several reasons,” Moscova shares. “Their dedication to sustainability and clean transportation is admirable. Additionally, the increasing demand for electric vehicles in the market, driven by environmental concerns and cost savings, made it clear that Spring Free EV was the right choice to stay competitive in the rental space.”

Moscova’s emphasis on the importance of focusing on EVs is underpinned by a multitude of reasons: 

1. Reduced Carbon Footprint: EVs significantly reduce the carbon footprint of his rental car business, contributing to a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly future. The environmental benefits of this transition are undeniable, as every electric mile driven equates to a reduction in harmful greenhouse gas emissions.

2. Lower Operating Costs: Operating costs are often lower for EVs compared to traditional gas-powered vehicles. This translates into savings for both businesses and consumers. With the rising cost of fuel, EVs offer a cost-effective alternative that doesn’t compromise on quality or convenience.

3. Forward-Thinking Appeal: Transitioning to EVs positions Moscova’s company as forward-thinker in the rental business. This appeals to environmentally-conscious consumers who are increasingly making choices aligned with sustainability. As the automotive industry continues to shift towards electrification, Moscova and his team are at the forefront of this transformative wave.

Moscova’s conviction regarding the transition to EVs goes beyond viewing it as a mere trend; he sees it as a sustainable shift in the automotive landscape. He firmly believes that as businesses, they have a responsibility to adapt and provide eco-friendly solutions to their customers. 

“Spring Free EV has been instrumental in helping me achieve this goal, and I believe that focusing on electric vehicles is not only good for business but essential for a better, cleaner future,” said Moscova. 

Looking ahead, his company is firmly committed to growth and innovation, closely aligned with the expanding EV industry. As early adopters of this transformative technology, they aim to set industry standards and continue providing enhanced services to their clients. Their vision is in perfect alignment with the sustainable future powered by electric vehicles, and they are excited to be a part of this transformative journey into a greener tomorrow.

Overall, Vickens Moscova’s journey from gas-powered vehicles to embracing electric cars showcases the power of innovation and sustainability in the automotive industry. His partnership with Spring Free EV and his unwavering commitment to a cleaner future, positions his company as a pioneer in the ever-evolving landscape of car rentals. As the world continues to shift towards electric vehicles, Moscova’s story serves as a shining example of how businesses can thrive while making a positive impact on the environment.
