Long-term rental cars equal zero maintenance worries? Yes, but with some clarification to be made. Because while most users think they can completely forget about the state of health of the car they use every day, it is not always 'all that glitters'. The reason for this is related to the handling of different types of work, from simple winter-summer tyre changes to high-value repair work. All with a common denominator, which translates into respecting your vehicle as if it were your own.
In fact, car rental does not mean disregarding maintenance or not carrying it out in a timely manner, as is often the case with fleet cars. It is essential that the user sticks precisely to the car's maintenance schedule, starting with refuelling with AdBlue and ending with periodic coupons. As well as avoiding costly downtime, proper vehicle management will contribute to reduced fuel consumption and lower pollutant emissions.
In addition to the information communicated directly from the car, technology comes to the aid of users by sending advance warnings about the work to be carried out directly to their smartphone
Reliable schedules, work carried out in a workmanlike manner, respected budgets and reduced downtime. These are the main 'ingredients' for an efficient fleet maintenance programme. The enlargement of car fleets, the growth of cars with Adas systems and the rise of hybrid and electric cars have increased the complexity of repair and maintenance programmes.
Added to this is the need for cost-competitive quotations. The situation is even more complex with high-value repair work representing a critical situation for fleets in most situations.
