As we prepare for the announcement of 2023 vehicles, two things are certain: 1. We continue to put our customers first, and 2.Supply chain disruptions are impacting next year’s vehicle inventory.

OEMs are experiencing long production delays for certain vehicle models, limiting inventory choices. Commercial vehicles such as vans and pickup trucks continue to be the hardest to acquire, and CUVs and small SUVs are also in high demand.

What we recommend

Leveraging your LeasePlan partnership can help you prioritize and select the features that best fit your needs within the pool of available vehicles. Your account team can update you on production lead times, provide vehicle replacement cycle analysis, and help research alternative vehicles based on your specific requirements.

Our top suggestion is to be flexible with your choices, specifically as they relate to preferences on vehicle make, color, price, and distance from the driver. Flexibility will result in a much higher probability of securing desired vehicles.

We remain committed to you

Managing the impact of the supply chain on fleet and strategizing for the year ahead is top-of-mind for many of our customers. We remain dedicated to delivering the best possible solutions available. We continue to locate vehicles for our clients and champion their needs during this time.

We encourage you to leverage your LeasePlan Client Success team and enlist their support in developing your fleet strategy and optimizing costs as needed. Our entire team is focused on delivering the right solutions for your needs.

Let's get started

As supply chain disruptions continue to impact market conditions, our team is ready to share our expertise, analysis and best practices to ensure you receive the best customer experience possible. Ready to put yourself in the driver’s seat and get ahead?
