Benchmark commercial vehicle manufacturer and model reliability

Our team are dedicated to reducing downtime for our customers. It’s one of the biggest challenges facing fleets today – which is why as part of our TCO+ Insights suite we’ve built a tool that looks at downtime performance across manufacturers and vehicle models.

We know downtime can be a real headache for fleet managers, particularly when it leaves you short of vehicles at key times. But it is also a genuine fleet cost that can be significantly higher than any money you save by opting for a cheaper headline price. Selecting vehicles with poor maintenance performance or long repair times can lead to operational inefficiencies and hidden expense.

This is where our Downtime Performance Insights tool comes in. It shows you real-world vehicle data, so you can avoid vehicles with poor maintenance performance or long repair times. This means you can optimise your procurement for cost and performance.

The tool allows you to filter by manufacturer, model, fuel type and vehicle age before showing you the average job length and percentage availability. It also calculates a downtime cost per event for benchmarking together with a total downtime cost estimate across the mileage of a contract.

As well as saving you money on downtime-related costs, this can help you keep your fleet running smoothly, as you can procure vehicles that spend more time on the road and less at the garage.
