We’re proud to share that Arnold Clark has won ‘EV Advocate of the Year’ at the AM Awards 2026. As the automotive industry continues to move towards new, sustainable technologies, we want to make sure our customers feel confident, informed and supported at every stage of their EV journey. To achieve this, we’ve continued to invest in training, educational tools, our EV range and accessible charging infrastructure. A key part of this has been the growth of Arnold Clark Charge, our ultra-rapid electric vehicle charging network, which offers bookable charging at one of over 60 sites across the UK. Pablo Levi, Arnold Clark Group Sustainability Manager said: 'By investing in training, the growth of Arnold Clark Charge and strong aftercare support, we don’t just understand electric vehicles, we believe in them.' 'This award is a huge credit to our employees across the business who continue to lead the way in helping customers embrace new technology with confidence.'
About us
Founded in 1954, Arnold Clark is the UK’s largest independent, family-run car retailer. The company started with a single-car showroom on Glasgow’s Park Road, given flight by its founder’s simple philosophy: to offer genuine value for money and customer service of the highest level. Since then, the Arnold Clark Group has continued to grow with over 200 branches in the UK – selling over 200,000 cars a year in locations stretching from Elgin to Southampton. But while Arnold Clark is a name that’s synonymous with vehicle sales, there’s much more to the business than you see on the showroom floor. There’s also a vehicle rental and fleet management operation, training group and vehicle auction division. The Group offers everything that a customer might need for the onward journey, with parts and servicing departments, an accident repairs division, EV charging solutions and insurance services.
