New vehicle rental solutions for SMEs
Europcar is offering a new flexible renting solution, enabling businesses to arrange “on demand” rentals.
The new B2B Flex and Flex+ packages enable companies to pick-up vehicles when they need them for just three months – with no upfront deposit or early termination fees beyond the initial three months.
This is being introduced to help SMEs deal with the financial strain of Covid-19; a new study has found that the pandemic has cost each business more than £11,700 in lost work, loan repayments and lost earnings.
Sam Sterry, SME sales director, said: “For the majority of SMEs the last few months have been extremely challenging, whether they have been working at full pelt supporting essential services, or stood down during the lockdown. Now what is needed is as much flexibility as possible to adapt to an unknown future.
“We have, therefore focused on developing a range of ‘on demand’ long term flexible rental products covering both cars and vans which can help companies respond quickly to changing demands in an efficient and ‘cash friendly’ way. Our vehicles, which are generally brand new, can be delivered or picked up from our branches or van super-sites nationwide. And in the wake of the pandemic we have added extra hygiene measures to keep everyone as safe as possible.”
