Fleet management that helps you to move forward
Managing a fleet involves many different issues, regardless of whether it contains dozens or thousands of vehicles: keeping your employees safe and happy, achieving your business targets and reducing your costs, reducing your CO2 footprint, and more.
A partner with the right expertise, services and tools is therefore a major advantage. A partner who goes the extra mile for you. A partner who makes it easy to manage your fleet, so you can focus on growing your business.

Do you know exactly how much your fleet costs? Not many companies do. That's actually very surprising, since the company fleet is a considerable cost to most growing businesses. Any improvement in the financing and management of company vehicles can have a huge impact on the operating results.
Here are a few factors you absolutely need to take into account in order to optimise your fleet.
- Depreciation
A good car that does about 16,000 kilometres per year is estimated to have lost 60% of its value in its first three years. If you buy a €30,000 car now, it will be worth €18,000 less in just three years' time.
- Fuel
Fuel takes a big chunk out of your fleet's budget. That's why it is definitely worth asking whether your employees are driving the most economical cars. And how they are paying for the fuel.
- VAT
Most fleets can recover up to 50% of VAT on leased cars. If the company buys the cars, that's likely not an option.
- Kilometres
If you buy a company car, the distances travelled by the car can have a major impact on the (fuel) costs and residual value.
- Maintenance and repair
Fleet management inevitably includes maintenance and repairs. The larger your fleet, the more time it will take to coordinate all the appointments and follow up. And what happens if a fault leads to an accident? Who will be liable?
- Company tax
Companies can claim capital compensation for cars that are purchased and used for business purposes. It is worthwhile calculating how this relates to the leasing costs.
- Insurance
You also need to ask yourself some crucial questions about insurance. How are employees driving their own car into work insured? Do they have the right cover? And to what extent are accident-prone drivers increasing your premium?
- Benefits for employees
To make a company car cost neutral, you need to weigh the company's costs and taxes for company cars against the other costs for your employees.
