Our Global Alliance
We have a long history of close collaboration with Wheels. Our alliance originated in 2009 between ALD Automotive and Wheels. Following the acquisition of LeasePlan, Ayvens and Wheels cater over 150 clients worldwide, managing more than 3 million vehicles in 58 countries. Our alliance is entering a new chapter, and is stronger than ever, meeting the complexity of mobility and the global challenges our clients face today.
With Wheels, we have created an alliance that benefits everyone. The world of mobility is becoming increasingly complex, and because our challenges are becoming global we require a global approach.
What does the alliance mean for our clients?
The alliance is structured upon three key pillars:
- 1.
Global account management
With the combined strength of two global mobility solutions providers, we can manage local fleets in the context of global goals. Meaning, our clients will benefit from expert facilitation of international fleet agreements, strategy, and enjoy the ease of one global account management team.
- 2.
Global reporting
This alliance means we're the first provider to introduce one single, harmonised global online reporting tool. Our clients can merge global fleet data from Ayvens and Wheels, offering improved insights into global fleet costs, flexible reporting solutions, and compliance with international fleet policy.
- 3.
Global consultancy
With a global network of consultants across the globe, working with the same data-driven methodology and tools, we're ready to support our clients. In-house experts from both sides will supply clients with market knowledge, benchmarking, whitepapers, and the annual Ayvens-Wheels Mobility Guide. An essential part of our consultancy proposition is to advise clients on their sustainable mobility strategy and the opportunities available to transition to electric vehicles (EVs).
An extensive alliance
Our global alliance also includes Mitsubishi Auto Leasing Corporation, established with ALD Automotive and Wheels in 2020, and extends global coverage for automotive leasing and fleet management services to global corporations in Japan.
In addition, Ayvens and Wheels have alliances with ABSA in South Africa, Autocorp in Latam, Arrend Leasing in Central America and Shouqi in China. Ayvens also has an alliance with SG Fleet in Australia and New Zealand. With our direct presence and through such alliances, we provide customers with access to 58 countries.
Our alliance in practice
For 15 years, we have partnered with Wheels to deliver the best in-class Mobility Guide. Our annual guide is designed to provide fleet managers with a detailed overview of the pace of electrification across various markets. This guide is a tool to help fleet managers navigate the complexities of the evolving sustainable mobility landscape, enabling them to adjust their strategies according to their geographical footprint.
