London Airport Transfers Direct operates the UK's first 100% electric private hire fleet for airport transfers. Every vehicle in our fleet — the Mercedes EQE, EQV, and EQS — is battery electric, producing zero direct tailpipe emissions on every journey. Whether you're arriving at Heathrow from New York or departing from Gatwick to Barcelona, your ground transfer contributes nothing to London's air pollution.
Aviation accounts for roughly 2.5% of global CO2 emissions, and the ground transfer at either end of a flight is one of the few parts of the journey where passengers can make a genuinely zero-emission choice. By booking with us, you're making that choice without paying more or sacrificing comfort — our electric transfers are priced identically to conventional services.
London has an Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) covering all of Greater London. Diesel and petrol vehicles pay a daily charge of £12.50. Electric vehicles are exempt. By choosing an electric transfer, you're also contributing to cleaner air in one of Europe's most congested cities — and helping London meet its net-zero targets.

| CO2 per journey | Zero | ~4.5kg average |
| ULEZ charge | Exempt | £12.50/day |
| Cabin noise level | Very quiet | Engine noise |
| Ride smoothness | No gear changes | Gear changes felt |

Our EQ fleet produces zero direct emissions during your journey.
