- Using Citroën cars, chosen for their low carbon emissions. Citroën won the Greenest Manufacturer of the year award, 2007 for the second years in a row.
- Reducing the amount of time drivers spend behind the wheel.
- Exploring alternative technologies to keep emissions low; including LPG, Biodiesel, Petrol/Electric Hybrid vehicles and Stop-Start technology.
Since July 2007, Whizzgo is in a partnership with Virgin Trains.
The technology
