Rebrand of the Arval Mobility Observatory

Our current positioning

We are thrilled to unveil the rebrand of the Arval Mobility Observatory. This effort is not merely a superficial change, it is an illustration of our evolution throughout the years and our commitment to providing unmatched insights and knowledge that encompasses the corporate mobility sector.
The Arval Mobility Observatory has been a trusted and independent source of valuable insights in the mobility sector, with a rich history dating back to 2002, under the name of the “Observatoire du Véhicule d’Entreprise (French Corporate Vehicle Observatory). From there on, it underwent several changes, from the “International Corporate Vehicle Observatory”, to the current “Arval Mobility Observatory” in 2019. Despite this evolution, it has always remained faithful to its prime objective: To provide valuable knowledge and intelligence on corporate mobility, helping business, policymakers, and mobility users alike to take their decision-making to the next level, in the present and for the future.
Looking ahead of 2025, The Arval Mobility Observatory aims to reinforce its positioning in this dynamic sector as the trusted source of mobility insights and foresight and continue to provide the most accurate and up-to-date information to a broad audience with a key interest in the mobility landscape.

Redefining our identity

The consolidation of this positioning is accompanied by a new take on the identity. The new Arval Mobility Observatory visual identity reflects its evolution as one of the leading authorities in mobility insights.
Designed to embody clarity, expertise, and foresight, the new logo and visual elements confirm its role as “a neutral and trusted observer” of mobility trends worldwide. At the heart of this design lies a stylized eye, symbolizing the observational and analytical role that communicates the Observatory’s ability to anticipate trends, use data and statistics, and provide forward-thinking findings to industry stakeholders.
The logo is not just a static symbol, it incorporates dynamic elements as well, reflecting movement, change and adaptability:

  • The round shape suggests a 360° perspective on mobility, demonstrating the global reach and deep market understanding.   
  • The curved line evokes the shape of a roundabout, a powerful representation of decision-making, transitions, and the constant evolution of mobility solutions.
  •  The central dot can be interpreted as a globe, emphasizing Arval Mobility Observatory’s worldwide influence and commitment to understanding global and local mobility dynamics, while putting sustainability at the center of its interests.

This new identity symbolizes the dedication to continuous innovation and the gratitude to the pioneers who laid the foundation for what Arval Mobility Observatory is today. It stands as a testament to our unique position in the market, celebrating both our rich history and future aspirations.
