Stephen Chater, Corporate Sales Manager, said: "We are delighted to have won this important new business opportunity with Streetcar, providing an ideal route for people to drive a BMW first hand for as long, or as short, a period as they need. By offering BMWs with EfficientDynamics technologies Streetcar is also fulfilling its longterm environmental aims while at the same time offering members more miles for their money."
