A new Smart Vehicle Replacement Tool designed to help fleets adopt flexible life cycles has been introduced by Chevin Fleet Solutions.
The system tracks individual vehicle age, mileage, fuel usage, maintenance spend, CO2 emissions, breakdowns and depreciation. The data is regularly compared with targets set for each vehicle type, creating a suggested replacement date for each car or van.
Managing Director Ashley Sowerby said: “This tool enables fleet manager to look at their worst scoring vehicles and consider their utilisation on the fleet. This may mean changing their operation or replacing them completely.”
The system is designed to help fleet managers make sensible decision about when to replace fleets. This might be particularly useful in the moving sector as vehicles are not usually changed because of their age or mileage.
