Vehicle acquisition & remarketing
Getting the best price for your vehicles—when you acquire them and when you resell them—is key to managing the costs of these essential business tools. Your LeasePlan rep has the analytical tools to help you identify the most cost-effective and efficient vehicles for your needs, with the lowest operating costs. They can also consult with you to choose the timing and strategy for replacing them.
Vehicle acquisition
- Smart analytics Our strategic consulting team can help you analyze your needs and your current fleet, to help you select the optimal vehicles for your budget. LeasePlan Online—our online fleet management tool—provides a suite of tools to hep you compare makes, models and pricing.
- Ease of online ordering Save time and effort: allow your drivers to order their own vehicles online. They will be able to choose from a preselected list of vehicles (based on your fleet needs and budget). Drivers can then track their order online, as it moves from factory to delivery.
- Get exactly what you want With LeasePlan you can order direct from the manufacturer—for whatever vehicle you need, from a Ford to a Tesla—and even customize the vehicles to your exact specifications. If you need something right away, we can locate it by accessing dealer inventory. Either way our streamlined ordering/delivery gets your drivers on the road with the vehicles they need when they need them.
- Upfit Consultations If your vehicles require special fittings or customization, our upfit and design consultants will work with you on your requirements and budget.

Vehicle remarketing
Get the best resale value on your fleet vehicles with our remarketing assistance.
First, select the right vehicles—that's where we come in. Our experts can help you identify which vehicles have the highest returns, today and in the future. When your vehicles are ready to come off lease, we put our proven methods of disposal to work for you.
**Proven remarketing strategies ** To set the best price for your vehicles, we use the LeasePlan Market Value Guide, which is based on comprehensive, current, secondary market data. Our very own in-house economist developed this proprietary statistical model. When your vehicles are ready for the auction block, we focus on the number of potential buyers and not the number of outlets. These strategies have helped us outperform our peer average in the remarketing area every year since 2008, based on quarterly data from Adesa Canada.
How we remarket your vehicles
When it’s time to resell you vehicles, our remarketing team earns you the highest return, in the shortest time, through some of these sales channels:
- Traditional in-lane auctions
- Simulcast online auctions to increase the number of bidders
- Selling vehicles upstream to employees and drivers through our reDrive program
- Specialty auctions if you need to dispose of salvaged or damaged vehicles
How we make it easier
- We take the time and hassle of managing fleet resales off your hands
- We put the right vehicles in front of the right buyers at the best time—to bring in the best resale price
- We use an efficient, automated process to save time and simplify sales
- We closely monitor the auction process to ensure your vehicles are well represented

Upfitting
Upfitting can include anything from special decals or graphic wraps to tool bins and ladder racks. Our fleet experts can guide you through building and ordering the vehicles that meet the most specialized purposes.
Upfit design and consultation
Our upfit approach is consultative: our fleet experts work with you to identify the upfit package(s) that suit your requirements. Then you choose from our expansive network of upfit vendors, and we match the details of your selected package(s) to your vehicles and manage the ordering process. The upfit specs will be stored in the vehicle record, to help you sell the specially-equipped units for top dollar when the time comes.
Streamlined vehicle ordering
Follow your new vehicles from order through upfitting and delivery, with LeasePlan Online, our online tracking tool.
Specialty upfit services
An upfitted vehicle may require specific maintenance, and we will direct your drivers to the specialty repair facilities that know the equipment best. Maintenance contracts can be extended to the upfit equipment, if necessary. If warranty work is required, we work directly with the different upfit vendors and specialty manufacturers, to make sure warranties are upheld. And at resale time, we can sell custom upfitted vehicles through specialty auction sales and remarketing strategies to ensure the highest resale value.
