Free review service could save 20% in fleet operating costs
A Midlands-based vehicle leasing company claims they can help to cut a fifth of the cost from running fleets.
Fleet Evolution is offering a free fleet funding and efficiency review to any business running up to 100 cars or vans.
Andrew Leech, MD of Fleet Evolution, says 70% of reviews point out savings of between 10% and 20%, which can be made by smaller fleet operators switching to leasing vehicles, and using newer and more fuel-efficient cars and vans.
“Typically, a 20 vehicle fleet costs £100,000 just to keep on the road,” explains Mr Leech.
“Many of the companies we help run older cars and vans in the belief that it will save them money – this is a mistake. Maintenance expenses, downtime and tyre and exhaust costs with older vehicles can quickly spiral.”
Andrew urges fleet operators to review their fleet or risk losing thousands.
“New vehicles reduce downtime and administrative costs,” he adds. “Of course these are just the direct savings, new vehicles can also improve a company’s image.
“With these potential savings, it could be the most effective 30 minutes a fleet operator could spend reviewing this with us.”
Fleet Evolution also recommends saving costs by running vehicles with fuel efficient engines and adopting purchasing methods that benefit from VAT rises.
