Summer might be over, but the adventure doesn’t have to end. With half of the UK’s car trips being under 5 miles*, hopping on a bike is the small change that could make a big difference. From 6th June to 26th September 2024, we ran an e-bike giveaway and powered up countless adventures by giving away 112 pedal-assist e-bikes. The possibilities for adventure – and your health – are endless when you swap four wheels for two. Why not see where the journey could take you?

**Comparison is versus regular Esso Synergy Diesel. Esso Ethos+™ 25% Renewable Diesel contains a minimum of 25% renewable diesel. Choosing Esso Ethos+™ 25% Renewable Diesel instead of regular Esso Synergy Diesel results in 15% lower greenhouse gas emissions when comparing the emissions over the life cycle of each fuel. Fuels vary both in their total life cycle emissions (i.e., from production to use or “well to wheel”) and in how the emissions are distributed throughout that life cycle. The methodology for calculating life cycle emissions and emissions reduction follows that outlined in the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligations Order 2007 (SI 2007/3072) as amended (“RTFO”).
