Fuel Efficiency On The Agenda Fleet Bosses As Petrol Costs Rise

With the recent, well documented fuel shortages dominating the news headlines, British motorists are becoming more and more conscious of their fuel economy.

With the cost of petrol also on the rise, drivers are looking very carefully at their driving habits and vehicle choices.

Those who control a high number of vehicles, e.g. fleet managers, are especially concerned about their cost-per-mile.

One way to lessen the impact of rising fuel costs is to consider a change of vehicles. As Renault fleet boss Richard Hawes commented, “If a finance director is looking at his fleet, he would be doing the analysis of what cars are most fuel-efficient. And there will be a point at which they’re going to look at changing their fleets.”
