About Us

Robb Gravett, founder of Ultimate Car Control, has a unique driving sensitivity and awareness that has been developed from his many years of highly successful racing at the forefront of motorsport worldwide.

Robb is a former British Touring Car Champion and winner of numerous races and car championships across the world. Throughout his extensive career, he has won many accolades including being voted British Racing Driver of the Year and Chamber of Commerce Sportsman of the Year.

Years of success at the top of international motorsport has meant Robb has been able to re-invest his skills to develop EPD – Excellence in Professional Driving – a unique training programme to protect business drivers at every level of risk.

In 2010 Ultimate Car Control began a strategic alliance with Volvo Cars, the recognised global leader in automotive safety, to promote EPD more widely to the business market. The large EPD training fleet is made up solely of the latest Volvo cars to ensure our EPD drivers – your employees – are only trained in the very safest equipment possible, enhancing their skills and confidence in a broad range of vehicle types and sizes.

Volvo’s relentless focus on safety, preventing accidents and reducing injuries is at the centre of ‘Volvo Vision 2020′ – a unique and ambitious programme with a target that by the year 2020, nobody should be killed or injured in a Volvo.

Even with all the innovative safety features we now include in our cars, our goal of reducing to zero the number of people killed or injured in a Volvo by 2020 is highly ambitious. Improving driver education and training will be a vital element which is why we’ve partnered with Ultimate Car Control. Volvo Cars use Ultimate Car Control’s EPD Fleet Driver Training Programme to train their own employees in the UK and we actively recommend it to all our corporate customers as a valuable and effective way of helping to protect their employees on the road.
