Report: BVRLA Industry Outlook 2019
Key findings
- Electric Vehicle (EV) lease ‘packages’ that combine rentals, servicing, charge points and occasional access to alternative cars will grow in popularity.
- E-cargo bikes and micro vehicles will become an increasing opportunity for rental and leasing companies.
- 2019’s key vehicle data theme is set to be prognostics – getting direct access to vehicle fault codes. It is believed that real-time and historic diagnostic data could enable fleet managers to make proactive interventions to improve vehicle safety, emissions and total cost of ownership.
- Access to affordable charging infrastructure will soon challenge parking as one of the most precious bits of urban real estate.
