Whole Life Cost Quotes

Leasing a vehicle can often be more cost-effective than purchasing one outright and the use of whole-life cost quotes is an important tool to calculate the overall expenditure associated with the vehicle.

The resulting simplicity makes it easier to calculate & manage costs, taking away any uncertainty so that business owners can calculate exactly what they’ll be paying for their fleet and identify potential savings. Helping you make an informed decision which maximises savings while meeting the needs of your business.

Comparison

To understand the importance of whole lift cost quotes, we have compared two like-for-like vehicles over a three-year contract. If you drive a combustion engine vehicle, you may be paying less on the monthly rental, but the whole life cost of the contract can be significantly more! In this comparison, you can see although the hybrid plug-in has a higher monthly rental, the whole life cost is significantly cheaper. Over the entire contract of this example, leasing the hybrid plug-in rather than the diesel will save your company £3805.20 and the driver £7376.40 (in benefit in kind taxation at 40%). Multiplied over a typical fleet of 50 vehicles, the vehicle with a higher monthly rental saves your company £190,260 over the entire contract (typical 3 years).
