Bridgend-based Sinclair Finance & Leasing is extending its contract with Fleet Assist by a further three years as the aftersales specialist works towards EV readiness across its 5,000-garage network.
The business uses Fleet Assist’s network to manage the aftersales of its fleet of nearly 4,600 vehicles which includes a growing number of electric vehicles.
Around 80% of the Fleet Assist network is now ‘EV ready’ which now also includes mobile repairers which can reach drivers in the less populated areas of the UK.
Paul Butcher, Sinclair’s fleet maintenance manager, said: “We have had a very good working relationship with Fleet Assist for the past nine years and look forward to working with them for another three. They have helped us keep ahead of the curve with our customers’ aftersales needs around electric and hybrid vehicles and have helped us proactively control our maintenance budget as the fleet continues to grow.”
Karen Ewer, Fleet Assist’s head of business development (pictured), said: “We have a strong working partnership and our businesses have grown alongside each other over the past few years. We continually invest time in future proofing our garage network as our customers’ fleets’ change. EVs and larger 4.25-tonne GVW LCVs are just two of these areas and we will continue to work with our garage network to ensure they provide the latest services for our customers and their drivers.”
